"What next?" I asked myself...........

During the 6 weeks of walking for Doddie Aid, I had plenty of time to think. And as I got to enjoying my regular time outdoors I thought about continuing with this walking malarkey. The inner dialogue went something like this.....

What if I tried to walk 500 miles this year for charity?

But which charity?

It has to be for Alzheimer Scotland.*

But this all started with Doddie Aid, part of the My Name'5 Doddie Foundation* - I couldn't walk for one and not the other.

So why not walk for both?

Could I really manage 500 miles and 500 more..........???

And so the challenge was born (in my head at least)

The two charities closest to my heart are Alzheimer Scotland (for those that don't know, my lovely Dad has this terrible disease - he was diagnosed back in 2013) and also My Name'5 Doddie Foundation (my Grandpa died from Motor Neurone Disease many years ago). After supporting MND Scotland for many years I began following the inspirational stories of Doddie Weir and Rob Burrow.
