Changing Plans
Published: 3 August 2025
Okay, so I previously posted about challenging myself to a 46km walk at the end of August for my Birthday, and a few lovely folks showed an interest in tagging along. Thank you! I now need to let you all know that I’ve changed my mind and decided against it. Sorry!
I don’t often back down or quit from a challenge once I set my sights on it but this one just doesn’t appeal right now. At the moment I’m loving filling my weekends with short runs, tiny photo walks, sea swims and hanging out with my friends getting squiffy. Committing the next few weekends to long training walks on my own, resting aching muscles and nursing blisters is just not how I want to spend my August. So a new plan has been hatched.
Friends, family and internet stalkers are welcome to join for any of these activities. All are optional and I’m happy to fly solo if needed - but it is my birthday and you wouldn’t want to make me cry! right?
August 30th
08:50 - The great field parkrun. Everyone welcome - runners, walkers and cheer squad
10:00 - Morning coffee at Seventh Seal
12:00 - Walk around the coast path of Portland starting at the Cove Pub. Its about 16km (10 miles) and roughly takes 3.5 hours at a steady pace.
18:00 - Food and beers back in Dorchester. Location to be determined (slide into my DMs or whatsapp me on the day)
23:59 - Briefly stop dancing to celebrate me turning another year older!
August 31st
00:01 - Continue dancing?
No regrets. Simples. ✌️
