12 hour walk in aid of Gumboot Friday

Canterbury

Mental health and the system being fucked is a topic very close to my heart.

On Tuesday 8th November 2022 from 6am - 6pm I'll be embarking on a 12 hour walk whilst wearing gumboots. I'll post stories to 12hourgumbootwalk on Instagram on the day.

The Day!  8 November 2022

I walked a total of 35km, took 45,000 steps and now have multiple blisters and have re-broken a previously broken toe.

I managed to make it 8.5 hours before I had to stop. The final km took me around 30 minutes as I hobbled back to my house. I have my feet wrapped up and elevated and haven't been able to move in a while lol.

Hopefully next time I can get the whole thing done, but I'm really happy with the 8.5 hours I managed (when I wasn't considering hacking my feet off ).

Thank you everyone for your support and donations and the original motivational quotes throughout the day!
