‘I’m more positive’

‘This challenge has proved I can complete the things I set my mind to. Now I embrace challenges at work with the same steady approach as getting the miles done, which has led to more productivity and positivity. At home there’s a calmer approach to almost everything. And the extra time taken to process things I might have left unchecked and bottled up has helped too. Plus I feel like I have more empathy.

I’ve struggled at times – we don’t all sprint our way there! – but #walk1000miles has made me fitter, more resilient and more positive.’
