National Take A Walk In The Park Day

National Take A Walk In The Park Day. Hello friends, happy Wednesday. So how are you today?

Did you also know that today is National Take A Walk In The Park Day?

I love getting out on a walk and one of the many things I missed when I lost my beautiful dog Mollie, was getting out on walks every day.

We use to go to the park every day. Most walks lasted at least an hour too. They all stopped when Mollie died. It’s not as fun walking on your own. No one to chuck a ball or frisbee to. No one to talk to!

Is today, National Take A Walk In The Park Day? Yes it is.

When is National Take A Walk In The Park Day? 30th March each year.

How long should I walk a day? Try doing 10 minutes and then increase it slowly. Until you get to the time you want to reach.

National Take A Walk In The Park Day:

On National Take a Walk in the Park Day, we honour the ancient art of putting one foot in front of the other while pretending to be outdoorsy.

It’s the one day a year when even the most committed couch potatoes venture into the wilderness, AKA the local city park, armed with a water bottle and an enthusiasm for nature that lasts approximately 15 minutes. Well for me it does.

We strut through the park like we’re on a mission to discover the lost city of Atlantis, but in reality, we’re just hunting for a conveniently placed bench to take a strategic “rest.”

It’s a day when squirrels become our spirit animals, gracefully darting around, and we try to keep up, dodging imaginary obstacles like invisible parkour champions.

So, grab your walking shoes, slap on some SPF for that blinding sunlight, and embark on a journey through the urban jungle – because on this day, everyone’s a wild adventurer, even if it’s just to find the nearest ice cream truck.

Walkies With Murphy:

Now I have Murphy, the walks have started back up and we get out on two walks, every day. Not too far at the minute, or too fast but about 20 minutes, each time we go out.

Murphy is growing bigger by the day so our walks will soon be very long. I am guessing to tire him out.

Murphy has started to love walkies. He now knows what to expect. He did just sit on the street at first, just looking around. Now he knows he might see some other dogs and rushes up to the park, straight away.

Also, Murphy loves other dogs, even though a few have gone for him as they do not like doddle hugs which he seems to give other dogs.

Spring Is Almost Here

National Take A Walk In The Park Day:

National Take A Walk In The Park Day: March 30th. So will you be taking a walk out to the park today? We have already been out this morning. I am now waiting for it to stop raining for our 2nd walk!

Murphy had a show a few days ago. He looks so much smaller when he does. You can see my latest Goldendoodle, Instagram Reel, here:

Murphy looks so little when he has had a shower. It’s right what people say when they meet him. ‘He’s a big furry teddy bear’. 100% Just A Baby Murphy.

On Saturday we took a ride out into the country and here is Murphy giving me a doodle cuddle: So what adventures shall we do today? Murphy And I On Instagram.

Don’t you just love getting out into the park, woods or countryside? Here is Murphy and I on one of our walkies. The Person You Are Trying To Call Is Busy.

Love this Instagram Reel, so much. Murphy looks real good today! As always I would say. I Look Real Good Today.

Spring Is Just Around The Corner:

Firstly, Spring Is Just Around The Corner.

Spring is almost around the corner, and I am overjoyed at the prospect. Groundhog Day has passed, and the countdown has begun. Here are a few things that come to mind when I think about Spring.

Even though it is still cold outside, I enjoy seeing the sun.

The sun has been shining and the temperature is gradually rising. Spring is approaching. Also, I’m thinking about hanging some laundry today?

Have you seen these lovely flower photos? In The Spring Sun, Beautiful Colourful Flowers. After all of this gorgeous weather, it started to rain towards the end of the week.

Hopefully, it won’t be too long before we can host a fun garden party. Spring Is Just Around The Corner. So good.

The Beautiful Colours Of Summer In St James Park:

Secondly, The Beautiful Colours Of Summer In St James Park.

When we visit London, I like to go for a walk in St James Park, which is my favourite park. It’s just stunning.

The flowers are always beautiful, and the wildlife is a sight to behold. I enjoy photographing flowers. So cheerful and lovely.

I adore photographing wildlife, but no matter how near they are, I can never capture a clear shot of them. In addition, I believe my hand shakes when I push the click button!!

When is the last time you had a squirrel approach you to see if you have any food?

Or witness a heron standing by your side anywhere else!? We don’t have any where I live, to be honest. Well, not ones that want to be near humans!! The Beautiful Colours Of Summer In St James Park. So pretty.

A Walk At Rufford Abbey County Park Summer:

Thirdly, A Walk At Rufford Abbey County Park Summer.

Isn’t this burgundy Lilly stunning? Because I enjoy photographing flowers.

Being alone with your thoughts might be harmful at times. So, every day, Live Laugh Love. There’s a photo-bomber in the house!!

When your Border Collie, Mollie, photobombs your photo!! Ha,ha!! It’s very lovely.

Why not take a selfie against a brick wall? I enjoy photographing brick walls and selfies, so I combined the two today. On a country walk, you never know what you’ll see. I adore this fast Autumn shot in the countryside!

At the same time, it has a real summertime feel about it. Furthermore, where will your today’s excursion take you? But first, excuse me while I take a selfie.

Or, even better, you photograph me taking a selfie. A Walk At Rufford Abbey County Park Summer. So much fun.

    Such lovely photos, Claire! Getting out for a walk every day really is such an important part of my life. I don’t have a dog, but I have gotten to know lots of local dog owners on my walks so I get a chance to visit with lots of fur-babies! Thank yo ufor highlighting National Take a Walk in the Park Day at Hearth and Soul. I think it will encourage lots of people to get out there and enjoy a lovely walk. And I think your sweater is gorgeous – you look fab in red! Thank you for sharing with Hearth and Sopul.

    I’ve never heard of National Walk in the Park day, Claire! But I guess that’s because I’ve lived in Portugal most of my life. We don’t really have parks here like you do in the UK, maybe in Lisbon, perhaps? I’m loving your photos—they’re beautiful and colourful! Murphy looks like such a happy little soul.

    What a fun walk in the park Claire! Murphy is so cute and such a cool companion. Definitely a plus when going to walks or other things. On my end, my son is a bit under the weather so we weren’t able to do our normal park date this week but perhaps we can make up for it this weekend?!
