@dublin2029.bsky.socialSo when Dublin 2029 happened, look, nobody stopped me.
And I didn't protest.
I never really do.
Someone really should warn people about that…

@ianmac.bsky.socialIt’s been a year since I lead my first #WellbeingWalk around Barrow Park.
I wish I’d logged the stats, but it’s never been about the numbers, it’s been about the people. 🥰
Here’s to another year and thanks to everyone who has helped and supported us along the way.
