I'm digging deep for the land I love

kms

My target 100 kms

I’m taking on the Groundwork Challenge!

We all saw the devastation caused by the 2019-2020 bushfire season. Billions of animals were lost. 

1 in 5 Australian mammals are on the endangered species list.

That’s why from 16 November until 16 December, I’m digging deep for the land I love.

I’ve committed to walking 100km in 30 days* to protect our native species and their precious habitats.

Please support me and help protect the land we all call home by making a tax deductible donation to Bush Heritage Australia.

Together, we can help restore the bush and protect our native species.

*In the interests of full disclosure, I adjusted this goal on November 24, 2020. I originally aimed to walk 150km in the month but this was not going to be feasible.

My Updates

Update Nov 21

Saturday 21st Nov
Quickly updating my last few days: 

Thursday Nov 19: I walked 2.6km from work to the bus/tram station, then 3-point-something (I have the total it recorded in the fitness update, so you can figure it out) km from Dickson to home. 

Friday Nov 20: I walked the 2.6km to work from the bus station and then back again in the afternoon. 

Saturday Nov 21: I was doing the "Witchcraft and Wizardry" mystery from CluedUpp with some friends, and walked about 2.88km.

Shorter day today. Will need to make it up on the weekend.

Day 2!

Tuesday 17th Nov
6.16km today! Feeling a bit sore afterwards! But I met some cockatoo friends. 

Made some friends! Not pictured: the cockatoo that had clearly been in a punch-up. His entire crest was missing?! And he looked a bit battered, but he could still fly and his mates were still hanging out with him, so that's nice.
