Sound Quality Disclaimer fam, in this episode, I am walking yet again, so apologies for the not-so-top-quality audio - I promise I'll make more of an effort to stay indoors next time! That means there is a bit of echo in parts, and I sound a bit weird, but hey - girls gotta do what a girls gotta do, and I have a 60 km walking goal each month, and as of this minute, I have 4 more days on the clock and 24 km to go!
