EP-191 WALKING FOR A CAUSE: A Journey Around Ireland with Patrick Davies


Listen Later

In this episode of The 10Adventures Podcast, we sit down with Patrick Davies, an avid long-distance walker and returning guest. Patrick shares his incredible journey circumnavigating Ireland on foot to raise funds for Alzheimer’s Research UK, inspired by his father’s battle with dementia.

 

We explore what it’s like to take on such an ambitious trek, from the challenges of walking Ireland’s rugged and rainy landscapes to the logistics of piecing together routes across the country. Patrick also reflects on the therapeutic nature of walking, the invaluable lessons learned from his previous trek across the UK, and how his latest adventure became a deeply personal way to contribute to a critical cause.

 

If you’re curious about the power of walking, the importance of dementia research, or simply dream of your next adventure, this episode is not to be missed.
