Happy New Year. Hopefully this year, we will finish our project to complete 52 different local-ish circular walks (one for each week of the year). Our first walk this month will be our 38th.

Into our second year of regular weekly walks. As the month starts, talk of the new Omicron virus variant is darkening the horizon, but the footpaths, lanes, and pubs of Cambridgeshire are still open for business. And we were able to get to Northern Ireland for Christmas, where we did a little urban walking.

We’ve now chalked up a year of our weekly walking project. We haven’t quite maintained the weekly pace the whole way through, as this month saw our 35th local walk (we’ve also recorded a handful of non-local ones). As life becomes more normal in this phase of the pandemic, there’s more to interrupt our regular walk slot. Thankfully, that’s included being able to travel, particularly to see family – we missed walking earlier this month partly because Joy was doing just that. Still, we’re building up a nice list (which can be seen here) and got back to it later in the month.

Back to walking after a couple of weeks enforced absence due to Covid-19 hitting our household. Fortunately, only Martha was affected and her symptoms were not too serious. But it did result in all of us having to self isolate. So it was great to get out walking again, before heading off on holiday to Scotland and Ireland.

This month we were able to get up to north Norfolk for a few days, so we’ve recorded a walk from that trip – then it was back to our local weekly walks project, until Covid intervened!

The gradual easing of the 2020/21 winter lockdown is becoming more noticeable as we enter April – and we may venture slightly further afield with some of our walks this month.

Into March. Covid lockdown continues, but there is a firmer (allbeit provisional) promise of a route out, and Spring is definitely arriving. Our list of completed walks is building up quite nicely now, and we’re adding more this month.
We’re also contributing the steps walked this month to St Laurence’s Parish CAFOD Group’s Walk for Water campaign.
