Stay Safe
Your safety is of paramount importance, please consider this before embarking on your activity and plan well in advance. Don’t push yourself, stay within the limits of what you know you can comfortably achieve.
If you are walking make sure somebody knows exactly where you are & when you are expected home, preferably walk with a group in a populated area. Always carry your phone, take a bottle of water & a snack & wear sunscreen. Do not walk with headphones, avoid hilly & remote areas as you might lose your phone signal. Avoid using the same routes at the same time each day, vary your walks & consider taking an alarm with you for added safety. If your dog is walking with you, keep them on a lead around livestock & don’t forget to take plenty of poop bags with you.
Keep track of your daily miles or steps by downloading a walking app. There are many to choose from, lots of them are free with different features. Have a google & find one that is right for you. Please remember not to publish your routes to social media platforms or anywhere else publicly for your safety.
Share your challenge on your socials & give us a tag @DogDeskAction we would love to be able to share your fundraise & cheer you on from the sidelines!
