Season 4 Episode 9
Welcome P-Soupers. This episode is a surprise interlude, it's a bit of slow radio with an important message about well-being too. Hear me chat with my Dad, Big G, on one of his daily walks, where he's recreating his previous walk along Hadrian's Wall, to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
Here's Dad's introduction
"I thoroughly enjoyed walking to remember Lou throughout May. Now that I am addicted I am going to emulate my 2005 challenge when I walked the Hadrians Wall Path for Cancer Research.At 86 years old I can't manage the rugged terrain of the Hadrian's Wall Path - so I'm going to walk the same distance, bit by bit, on my regular morning walks.I estimate that I walk approximately one mile a day on my morning walks. So the challenge is to complete 84 morning walks for Cancer Research. Your support would be most appreciated, thank you."
In the conversation, Dad also provides a live and brilliant example of the five ways to well-being.
