Walking for the Hearts that Can't

I am taking part in 10,000 steps a Day in September to raise funds for the Irish Heart Foundation and I’d love your support to help protect hearts in Ireland. ❤️

The Irish Heart Foundation’s mission is to eliminate preventable death and disability from heart disease and stroke and to support and care for those living with these life-changing conditions.

Your donation will make a real difference to people and families affected by heart disease and stroke.

Thank you for visiting my page and for your support.

Correction: Distances Logged in Miles, Not Kilometres!

Tuesday 9th Sep

I just discovered my tracker was set to miles instead of kilometres, so the distances I covered were greater than I first thought. Here’s the corrected breakdown for each day:

Corrected Daily Distances

  • Monday: 12,960 steps — 9.2 km, 5.7 miles

  • Tuesday: 22,294 steps — 15.2 km, 9.4 miles

  • Wednesday: 17,028 steps — 11.7 km, 7.3 miles

  • Thursday: 8,702 steps (spent the evening and overnight in the Emergency Department) — 6.4 km, 4.0 miles

  • Friday: 12,336 steps — 8.6 km, 5.3 miles

  • Saturday: 10,790 steps — 7.6 km, 4.7 miles

  • Sunday: 11,641 steps — 8.1 km, 5.0 miles

  • Monday: 14,974 steps — 10.1 km, 6.3 miles

That means over eight days I actually covered 76.9 km (47.7 miles) walking for the Irish Heart Foundation.

Thanks for bearing with the mix-up and for all your support!

🏃‍♂️💓 Sunday Steps for Heart Health!

Sunday 7th Sep

Today I clocked 11,566 steps—just over 5 miles—walking along the serene banks of the Grand Canal and crossing the beautiful River Barrow. Every stride was for the Irish Heart Foundation, helping raise awareness and support for heart health across Ireland.

Grateful for the fresh air, the peaceful views, and the chance to move with purpose. Let’s keep those hearts beating strong—one step at a time! 🇮🇪❤️

🚶‍♂️Stepping Up for Heart Health: My Week of Walking for the Irish Heart Foundation

Saturday 6th Sep


This week, I laced up my shoes with purpose—not just for fitness, but for a cause close to my heart. I’ve committed to walking 10,000 steps a day to raise funds for the Irish Heart Foundation, and let me tell you, it’s been a week of determination, surprises, and a few sore muscles.

📅 The Week in Steps

  • Monday: 12,960 steps — off to a strong start!

  • Tuesday: 22,294 steps — I must’ve been part mountain goat that day.

  • Wednesday: 17,028 steps — steady and strong.

  • Thursday: 8,702 steps — a curveball. I spent the evening and overnight in the Emergency Department, but still managed to get close to the goal.

  • Friday: 12,336 steps — bouncing back with energy.

  • Saturday: 10,790 steps — mission accomplished.

Despite Thursday’s unexpected hospital visit, I stayed committed. That day reminded me why this fundraiser matters so much. Heart health isn’t just a statistic—it’s personal, unpredictable, and worth fighting for.

❤️ Why I’m Doing This

The Irish Heart Foundation works tirelessly to prevent heart disease and stroke, support patients, and promote healthier lifestyles across Ireland. Every step I take is a small tribute to their mission—and a reminder that movement is medicine.

🙌 How You Can Help

If you’d like to support this journey, consider donating to the Irish Heart Foundation or simply joining me in the challenge. Whether it’s 1,000 steps or 10,000, every step counts.

Thanks for following along. I’ll keep walking, one step at a time—for my heart, for your heart, and for all the hearts that need a little extra care.
