Walk on the Wild Side

My Activity Tracking

My target 150 kms

Please support my challenge to protect Aussie wildlife!

I’m Walking on the Wild Side because Australian native animals urgently need our help – and I’m hoping you’ll support me!

By taking on the challenge this April, I’m raising vital funds to provide emergency rescue and care for injured, orphaned and displaced native animals.  

I’ll be helping to keep the WIRES Wildlife Rescue Office open 24/7, so injured animals receive a swift emergency rescue, when every minute truly counts. Our funds will also help resource their fleet of Wildlife Ambulances, and support their thousands of volunteers with training, rescue equipment and daily wildlife food! 

Please sponsor me generously. Together we'll provide critical rescue and care for thousands of distressed native animals over the coming months, giving them a second chance of life in the wild. Thank you!

1 more sleep until CHOCOLATE

Easter Saturday! 

I’m not really sure what Easterness happens on a Saturday except for the anticipation of a sugar high for millions of kids… at least that’s what I was like back then lol

These days, not really a chocolate or sweets fan.
Unless it’s vegan then I might have a piece or two. 

But let’s get in to today! 

I switched up locations to the gorgeous local park, where I often take my dogs for a play and this time just did quite laps with podcast in my ears.
It’s a great way to help navigate the time as well 

5km done & dusted!! 

Remember to leave carrots out for Easter Bunny 


Be good, 💚 you, see you tomorrow!

Day 2 & Zombie

Sunday 5th Apr
It’s day 2! And I am so out of it.
I clearly didn’t do enough lead in training or prep
Work 

Plus it’s getting darker and colder so need to make sure I rug up especially with daylight savings happening soon too. 

No walk today which just means double it up 


Be good, 💚 you, see you tomorrow!

IT BEGINS!

Wednesday 1st Apr
So today started off well! I took my two dogs with me for our first lap (1.5km) 
I’ve cooper (labrador) & rocket (blue heeler) 

 I’ve found breaking up the day helps 
Eg; morning & afternoon.

The evening walk was 2 laps bringing today’s total to 4.5km in 90minutes. 

I hadn’t given social media much though. But it might be a cool way to post daily updates from the walk as we work towards $1,000 & 150km

Thank you all to have donated! Your support means the absolute world!

Be good, 💚 you, see you tomorrow!
