8 million steps to help end homelessness

This year I’m attempting to walk 8 million steps. Any money I raise will go to Crisis, the national charity for people experiencing homelessness.

For more information on why I'm doing this please read my blog.

I will add updates to this page throughout the year. Please donate anything you can.

January 1st - June 30th

TOTAL STEPS: 4,575,128

January 4th: Posted the blog explaining the challenge I’m undertaking. Lots of people think I’m crazy. Many more thought it was a scam.

February 15th: Hit my first million steps but I can’t celebrate. I’ve barely moved for the last week. I came down with some virus that destroyed my energy, and my step average. Devastating.

April 7th: Never thought I’d be the kind of person to get up at 6am to exercise while on holiday. But here I am.

May 29th: Going through a frustrating period of low mood and anxiety. Getting up early is becoming a big struggle. I’m having to do more steps in the evening. Need to force myself to keep going. Every step counts.

June 10th: 4 million steps completed. All downhill from here surely…
