Those small steps are often the most important, even if people don’t see them

If taking big actions feels like too much right now, remember that little actions are what get your big plans in motion

Going for a massive hike ➡️ putting on your runners and walking around the block
Reading a novel ➡️ reading the first 10 pages
Planning a whole holiday ➡️ booking with us to let us take care of it ;)

You are capable of so much more than you think, you just need to say yes!

10 days in Sri Lanka and honestly… what a country. 🌴🇱🇰

Coming live from the beach in Negombo after a tour that had everything — stunning stays… and one that didnt hit the mark 😅, temples, elephant safaris, hikes through Horton Plains, getting rained out at Knuckles National Park (because Sri Lanka does what it wants), and the big one: everyone pushing to the top of Adam’s Peak — 6,000+ steps and a whole lot of proud, tired smiles.

There were long, windy drives, but also kayaking, bike rides, and those magic moments you only get when you wander off the beaten track with a good crew.

Adventure isn’t just the places — it’s the connection, the laughter, the shared “we actually did that” moments.

Want in next year? Come join us

Massive shout out this morning to everyone who came to Hike Fit – honestly, can you just come to all our hikes?

It’s been a big few weeks of new faces and our regular crew smashing the kms, and today we hit the stairs. Strength. Stretch. Mobility. That balance between building power and releasing tight lower backs. Even practising getting up and down off the floor – because yes, that matters for longevity.

The joy of movement isn’t always glamorous. Sometimes it’s stairs. Sometimes it’s stretching. But it’s always about building capacity.

And today I want to celebrate one incredible woman.

Danielle has been coming for over a year now – most weekends, often twice. She’s been open about her weight loss journey, and that’s powerful. But what I really want to acknowledge is her mental stamina.

Her consistency.
Her grit.
Her willingness to keep showing up.

I remember when hiking felt frustrating. When being at the back of the pack was hard. When disappointment crept in.

Today I watched her come flying around the corner, running out the front and encouraging everyone else.

From the back of the pack… to leading the charge.

Not because it was easy.
But because she didn’t quit.

The weight loss may have built confidence, but it’s her commitment to keep turning up – even when it was tough – that changed everything.

Danielle, I am so proud of you.

And I’m also so proud of every single person who shows up.

Especially those walking in for the first time – not knowing if you’ll be “good enough”, not knowing if you’ll be at the back, not even sure what to wear. Thank you for trusting us.

And thank you to those who keep turning up. Who encourage others. Who bring friends. Who come on their own. Who show up when it’s messy. When it’s raining. When life feels full.

Because this is so much more than hiking.

It’s meaning.
It’s belonging.
It’s a little bit more health in our bodies and our lives.

So thank you for being part of it.
