What I'm doing - Over the next 150 days (before 1st June,) I will be completing a virtual challenge to cover the distance of Route 66 in the USA. The total distance is 3669.8km.
I will be covering the distance with Cycling, Running and Rowing on the machines at the gym and Walking using my phone tracker. I will be doing this every day over the next 150 days. This challenge is one of the toughest challenges Conqueror does. Conqueror is the app I will be using to monitor the distance and manage the challenge. They will also be planting a tree for every 20% of the challenge I complete.
Why I'm doing it - After catching covid just before Christmas and having to isolate over the festive period. I got a small taste of how lonely isolation can be.
Unfortunately there are some elderly people out there that have to live with this isolation every single day. This has been made so much worse by the current covid situation we are going through.
The money raised will go towards making the lives of the elderly seeking help that little bit easier. Whether it's as simple as providing advice or having a friendly conversion over the telephone. To arranging social activities for them to attend and participate in.
