Sharon’s Walking Challenge

100 Mile Walking Challenge Week 1

If you read my blog last week, as promised here’s an update on week 1 of my 100

mile walking 󰣰challenge. If you’re not aware, all the information can be found on

AACKA.com and the AACKA Facebook Page.

Brief summary

February 2026 is Heart Month and AACKA is shining a light on The British Heart

Foundation (BHF).

At BHF, their vision is a world where everyone has a healthier heart for longer.

Where fewer hearts stop without warning and more of us can live well with the

people we love.

I’ve decided to fundraise for The British Heart Foundation and AACKA by taking on

the BHF walking challenge and completing 100 miles during the month of February

2026. I hope you’re able to support me in my quest by making a donation (no matter

how small) to help support the work of these two organisations. Any donations

received will be equally shared 50/50. Visit our website or Facebook page for details

on how to make a donation.

How’s The Challenge Going?

As you might imagine, it’s difficult to gauge my progress based on one week,

however I’m feeling positive about completing the 100 Mile Challenge in 28 days.

I”ve been adding those extra steps to my tally by doing little things like taking a long

route to the shops, getting off the bus a stop earlier than usual and walking to visit

friends instead of getting on the bus.My challenge for week 2 is to beat the step count achieved on Saturday 7th
