Halfway Through My 10,000 Steps a Day Challenge

I can’t believe I’m already nearly halfway through my 10,000 steps a day challenge for cancer.

When I first signed up, I knew it would be a challenge, but I didn’t realise just how much it would become part of my daily routine. Some days have felt easy and even enjoyable, while others have definitely taken a bit more effort -especially on busy or tired days. But so far, I’ve kept going, and that’s something I’m really proud of.

This challenge has made me much more aware of how active I am during the day. I’ve found myself going on more walks, taking longer routes, and even pacing around the house just to reach my goal. It’s also become a really nice way to clear my head, especially on days when I need a mental reset.

What’s kept me motivated is knowing why I’m doing this. Every step is for people affected by cancer - those currently fighting it, those who have beaten it, and those we remember. Thinking about that has really helped push me through the tougher days.

I’m so grateful to everyone who has supported me so far, whether that’s through donations, messages, or encouragement. It really means more than I can say. With the second half of the challenge still to go, I’m excited to keep going and finish strong.

Thank you for being part of this journey with me and helping me make every step count. 💛
