"“Encouraging someone to take part is really like giving them a gift for life. There are not many things where you can say, ‘I’m going to do that, I am going to do some good and I’m going to get a medal for it’.”"

"If you’re in a fog of depression, set yourself doable goals and build up from there. Head out at a time of day when your energy is highest."

"If what you start now becomes a daily habit, you’ll still do it when you’re 70 or 80. The more you look after yourself and the fitter you are, the more choices you have when you’re older. Walking gives you confidence because you can feel your body get stronger."

"“For some founders, its very hard to evolve the charity, because as it gets bigger, they very much dont know how to do that. And so, Ive always been really conscious that its really important to evolve, to keep changing, to keep being relevant."

"Reward yourself. If you’ve completed a good walk, pat yourself on the back for getting out there."

"I love the beginning of the day because its full of promise, and when youre up early it feels like youre part of something unique that no one else is seeing."
