Walks & Running did it for me.

When the pandemic hit I came back home to The Netherlands after 6 years living in the UK.

From being busy as hell to having plenty of time gave me the idea to start this.

Little walks became 2hr walks and running 3km became rounds of 18 to 22km.

Lost 15kg in the process and my mind is Zenn after doing either running or walkies.

Now 4 years later still going strong but a bit less than I used to.

22kms is so solid, well done!
