My Challenge is to go with no car for 10 days EVERY DAY FROM 20-29 OCT

bg my challenge

My challenge is uncomfortable for me because...

I've become so dependent on my car for everyday life, and I realise that having such easy access to it is a privilege not everyone has. So, I've decided to step out of my comfort zone and challenge myself to rely on walking and public transport instead.  Not only will this shake up my routine, but it’ll also help me get better at my time management, which has been a struggle for me. I’m looking forward to the change and excited to help Nedd raise $10 million !!

My first run!! 😎😎

Monday 9th Sep
Helloooooo! 

So I have added to my uncomfortable challenge and going to be running 16km on the last day of the challenge. This is such a big goal to achieve, as I am not much of a runner (literally the last time I ran was in high school 😭). I am super excited to challenge myself and get uncomfortable! 

Soooooo, the team and I (at mobilise) decided to go for a team run, and this was my first run in a very long time. 
I really didn’t think I would make it past 1km but I ran 3km!!! Woo woo 🚀🚀 

Felt so proud of myself for making it to 3km and has motivated me to run again on the weekend! 

My Uncomfortable Challenge :)

Monday 2nd Sep

Helloooooo!

I’m super keen for October to begin my challenge and get uncomfortable! For 10 days, I’ll be giving up my car, including lifts from anyone and rideshares. My only options will be walking or using public transport. I chose this challenge because having access to a car is a privilege that not everyone has, and I’ve found myself relying on it heavily recently.

One aspect I anticipate being particularly challenging is my daily commute to the train station. I live deep in the suburbs, so it’s about a 30-minute uphill walk. Additionally, the 45-minute walk to my fitness classes, will also push me out of my comfort zone, but I’m excited to take on this challenge.

My goal is for this temporary discomfort to help me build a lasting habit. I want to continue choosing walking and public transport over driving, making more mindful transportation choices even after the challenge ends.


Additionally! I'll be running 16km on the last day of this uncomfortable challenge. This is 10% of what Nedd is doing everyday so happy to challenge myself and run a distance that I've never completed before!
