On my list I added a few things I have been wanting to do and places I have been wanting to visit in Yorkshire that I have been meaning to do but have never seemed to get round to. There are still loads of places and things on my list but here are the 4 I... Continue Reading →
#15. Visit the Giants Causeway
One place that has been on my bucket list for ages is the Giants Causeway. Ireland is such a beautiful place and when my mum asked me where I wanted to go for our annual city break I suggested Belfast! We flew over pretty early on Friday morning and hired a car planning to go... Continue Reading →
#14. Go on a trip with no planning
When I set myself this goal I kinds of envisioned it as packing a suitcase full of random clothes setting off for the airport and saying “send us on the next flight out of here”. I am pretty organised and thought this would be a good goal to do something so far from what I... Continue Reading →
#13. Do an unassisted pull up
I have spent the last 8 years trying to find a balance between my love of cardio, mainly running, and my love of strength training. I have bounced around between several gyms, boot camps and classes. I’ve always thought CrossFit sounded right up my street. Good mixture of cardio and weight training where you can just... Continue Reading →
#12. Do a race that requires navigation
When I did my navigation course I wanted to put a goal on my list to actually use the skills I had learnt in a race. I have yet to use my map and compass in a fell race so was on the hunt for a race that required some map reading. I heard about a... Continue Reading →
#11. Do the Three Peaks Fell Race
The Three Peaks Fell Race is a 23.3 mile run in the Yorkshire Dales with 5279ft of climb. The route takes you from Horton in Ribblesdale up the smallest of the 3, Pen-y-ghent, with a fast flat section to Ribblehead, followed by a double dose of mountain climbing up and down Whernside and Ingleborough, topped...

#9. Do a photography course & #10. Buy a camera
As someone who loves being outdoors and being close to nature I see a lot of beautiful sights when out and about but what I see never really translates into a good picture. On Instagram I have loads of friends who seem to capture a moment perfectly but this doesn’t come naturally to me. So... Continue Reading →
#8 Go vegan for a month
I am a keen cook and tend to make most of my meals from scratch although I tend to centre most of my meals around meat. This is mainly because any time I have tried to make a veggie chilli or curry Matty just complains ‘Where's the meat Becki?’ I really love vegetarian food and... Continue Reading →
#7 Get to 30 different parkruns
One of my 30 list goals was to do a bit more parkrun tourism and increase the amount of different parkrun's I have tried. This seemed like a hard task as mine and Matty's usual routine was for me to roll out of bed at 8.40am, quickly get ready, argue with Matty about whether he was coming... Continue Reading →
#6 Do a Bottomless Brunch
It seems like bottomless brunch is the new craze but I had yet to find a good excuse for a bit of day drinking and my favourite meal, ‘Brunch’. In comes the 30 list to the rescue and also a very belated birthday treat for me and my friend Liz. First to decide which one... Continue Reading →
