My target 99 kms

I’m taking part in the 99k for Canines with Dogs Trust this February!

I’m making a positive start to 2025 by joining the Dogs Trust 99k for Canines challenge! I will be walking (and running) 99km throughout the month of February to raise money for all the dogs in their care.

The aim of Dogs Trust is to give stray and abandoned dogs a second chance at a brighter future with responsible, caring new owners. In 2023, they were able to successfully rehome over 9,000 dogs and cared for a total of 11,464 dogs (including those through their Ukraine quarantine scheme as well as police dogs working at the Commonwealth Games!). With your help Dogs Trust hope to continue helping more dogs in 2025 as the need for their services increases with the current cost of living crisis.

My Updates

Final 5km complete!!!

We've done it!! With a last 5km run with Blackberry today I've successfully managed to run 99km over the month of February. This includes some days where I absolutely didn't want to leave the house let alone go for a run in miserable weather 😂 Couldn't have done it without the poor dogs that helpfully towed me in circles around Pershore. (They loved it) And thank you again to everyone who has donated! We've blown past the Dog's Trust goal of £99 🎉 There's still a couple of days left to donate money to help abandoned dogs (and if you're as surprised as I am that I've actually gone from barely an exercise at all to 99km of running in one month!)

Rainy 8km run with Willow

Completed a rainy 8km run with Willow today for our 99km for Dogs trust. Furthest distance we've done without any walking and only 5km left of our goal for this month! Genuinely surprised I've actually been able to keep it up this month 🎉🎉

4km on the Treadmill

Another 4km on the treadmill today! Nice break after yesterdays run :)

Planning on a lovely 8km tomorrow... nearly at the end goal!

Solo 12km run completed. 17km to go!

Smashed out a lovely 12km this afternoon! Unbelievably I have only got 17km left to complete the 99km challenge for this month 🎉 Hoping I'm not too tired now to finish it! Sadly I couldn't take a dog today as Blackberry twisted a dewclaw yesterday. (Bonus picture of Blackberry in her cone for sympathy points)

Evening 5km Run with Willow

Willow and I did our fastest 5km so far today! She's still terrible at letting me take photos of her with the bandana on but she's a speedy runner.

3km with Oli

Tiny tiny 3km in Stourbridge so we don't get too lazy on holiday. 65km/99km completed this month!

4km on the Treadmill

Another quick 4km on a treadmill today to keep some distance up. We're on 62km now :)

10km with Blackberry

A hilly 10k through the woods completed today. We may have done some accidental off-path jogging that turned into a slow squelch but somebody definitely enjoyed herself! 😁

Muddy 5km with Willow

Smashed out a short 5k today after a day off yesterday 😊 Willow certainly enjoyed a good jog round the park & by the river! We're now at 48km out of our goal of 99k this month!!

4km on the Treadmill

A quick 4km on the treadmill in between nights. Will be doing the same distance outside tomorrow for some fresh air!

8km run with Blackberry

A decent 8km round Pershore today, finishing with our picture in the park :) Miserable weather but a good run! We're now 39km down out of 99km for the month of February - thanks to everyone who has donated!

3.5km Treadmill

Another quick 30 min treadmill 😅
Too late to go out after work!
Will be back outside and hoping to do more impressive distance again tomorrow 🙂

3km on the Treadmill.

Completed a quick 3k on the treadmill tonight after a busy day to try and keep things going!

5k run/walk with Blackberry & Willow in the secure dog field

25k out of 99k running completed so far this month! We had a lovely time today practicing on/off lead running together round the field & lots of throwing the ball in the vain hope of exhausting at least one of these demon creatures... 75% Jogging 25% Walking so I had time to actually throw said ball!

7k Run 05/02

A very slow solo 7k today - was aiming for a bit more but didn't quite manage it.

 20k down now... only 79k to go...

Nearly at this week's goal of 25k - hoping to keep everything on track!

Evening 6k with Willow

Lovely consistent jog with Willow. Unlike her sister she doesn't feel the need to sprint absolutely everywhere.

4k jog with Blackberry!

Don't think I will ever be fast enough for this dog... she just wants to sprint everywhere!

First 3k down!

Short after work run with Menace 1 to start the month 😁
