The last leg WFA

@ruthfinch2

DONE, DONE, DONE 🙌💚 I actually did it… I’ve completed my step challenge! 247,254 steps done🚶‍♀️ Over 12 days, I pushed myself way beyond what I expected. I originally planned 30,000 steps a day for 8 days — but wow, I seriously underestimated just how much time, energy, and determination that would take 😅 But this was bigger than just steps for me. I wanted to challenge myself because my youngest faces challenges every single day. That kept me going when it got tough. 💚 And now I can proudly say… I did it 💪🏻💪🏻 If you’ve been following my Walk for Autism journey, thank you so much — your support means everything. 💚 Please take a moment to check out my fundraiser page where I’ve shared all my TikToks, Facebook lives, and photos from the journey. If you’re able to donate, any amount — big or small — would be truly appreciated 🙏💚 Thank you for being part of this with me 💚 #WalkForAutism #AutismAwareness #StepChallenge #MumLife #ForACause 💚 https://www.walkforautism.co.uk/fundraisers/RuthFinch @Walk for Autism

WFA World Autism Acceptance Day

Day 7(8) WFA

@ruthfinch2

Today is World Autism Acceptance Day 💚🫶 Day 8… but really Day 7 (yesterday was a health day!). It’s been a busy one — playdate, family gathering, and Clubbercise — so I made sure to get my steps in wherever I could. I took a longer walk to class, and once it finished, I was determined to hit my goal… so I headed straight back out. A few hours later — I did it. 30,243 steps 💪🏻💪🏻 Feeling very proud! My Clubbercise instructor (who’s a personal trainer) asked about my daily step target, and when I told her, she was shocked 😅 Apparently, I’ve set myself an athlete-level goal 🫣🤯 I just wanted to challenge myself — especially knowing my son faces challenges every single day. I didn’t realise I’d taken it to that level… but here we are 💚 If you’d like to support my autism fundraiser, the link is in my bio 💚 Or comment “WALK” and I’ll send it over!

World Autism Acceptance Day 💚🫶💚

@ruthfinch2

#CapCut Today is World Autism Acceptance Day 💚🫶 Let’s choose kindness. I know the struggles… the looks… and sometimes the ignorance when my youngest has a meltdown in public. What people don’t see is that in that moment, we’re doing everything we can to keep our child safe — to stop them from running into danger — while they kick and scream because it’s their only way to communicate right then. It might look like “bad behaviour” or “bad parenting”… but that’s only the tip of the iceberg. There’s always more beneath the surface. So next time you see a child “acting out,” please don’t judge. Maybe just check in with the parent… or simply walk on without staring. That kindness can mean more than you realise 💚 If you’d like to support my autism fundraiser, the link is in my bio 💚 Or comment “WALK” and I’ll send it over!

Day 7/8 WFA

Day 6 WFA

@ruthfinch2

Day 6 of walking for autism 💚 Today was more of a rest-style day with family commitments, so fitting in my usual steps was a challenge. Instead of multiple walks, I pushed through one bigger walk and set a 15,000 step target. It’s not the usual 30,000, but showing up still matters — and I’m proud I made it happen.

Day 5 WFA

@ruthfinch2

Day 5 - Walk for Autism hit it hard 💚 Today was all about topping up the steps… every chance I got. It started with a doctor’s appointment, but instead of the quickest route, I chose the scenic one 🌿 Turned it into a circular walk and set the tone for the whole day. Came home, reset, then headed out for Week 2 of Couch to 5K with my eldest 🏃‍♀️ And of course… we added extra steps at the end. Then came Zumba 💃 And honestly… I went all in 😂 Full “Glowworm” mode (my Zumba nickname) ✨ Hair extensions Butterflies 🦋 Glitter everywhere All of it. Because if I’m showing up, I’m SHOWING UP. I headed there early, took the scenic route, and walked it again after — just to hit my steps with a vengeance 👊 Not just for me… but to get people talking, noticing, and supporting this Autism fundraiser💚 No shortcuts today. Just consistency. And for the first time… I might actually hit (or even beat) my goal just through moving all day. This journey isn’t just about steps. It’s about showing up — loud, proud, and a little bit sparkly ✨ If you’d like to support my Autism fundraiser, the link’s in my bio 💙 Or comment “WALK” and I’ll send it to you.

Day 4 WFA

@ruthfinch2

Day 4 💚 – A Walk for Autism Three stints today and it turned into a full family day out 🫶 Mission of the day: find the River Thames source (eldest’s pick) ✅ then off to the zoo (youngest’s choice) 🐾 With all the travelling, my final walk ended up pretty late, so I could only top up where I could… but we still hit 25,000+ steps today 💪🏻 That brings the total to 105,000 steps 👣 (80,000 as of yesterday!) Halfway through now… and yeah, I know I’m a bit short on where I hoped to be — but I’m still showing up every single day for this cause 💚 Real talk: blisters on blisters, achy feet, sore knees… it’s starting to bite 😅 So if you’ve been watching and thinking about it — now’s the time 🙏 If you can, please consider donating 💚 Link’s in my bio, or comment “WALK” and I’ll send it over 👇 Let’s roll into Day 5 💪🏻 #WalkForAutism #AutismAwareness #KeepGoing #RealJourney https://www.walkforautism.co.uk/fundraisers/RuthFinch @Walk for Autism

Day 3

@ruthfinch2

Day 3 – Walk for Autism 💚 A two-parter today 💪🏻 Started with a run/walk with my eldest — short and sweet as we had things to do, but every step counts! Snuck in a few more steps at home and at a birthday party… then it was back home and time for part two — a solo walk, with a mission 💪🏻 Knee supports on, butterflies in my hair, green sparkly makeup… I was ready to make every step count ✨ BUT… walking downhill is not my friend 😅 my knees were definitely feeling it 🫣 If anyone has tips for walking downhill without wrecking your knees, please drop them below — I’d really appreciate it 🙏🙏 My Fundraiser link is in my bio, or comment “WALK” and I’ll send it over 💚 Let’s roll into Day 4 💪🏻 #WalkForAutism #AutismAwareness #KeepGoing #RealJourney https://www.walkforautism.co.uk/fundraisers/RuthFinch @Walk for Autism

Day 2 walk it was a tough one

@ruthfinch2

Day 2 – Walk for Autism 💚 Today was a tough one. I had to fit all my steps into one big walk after family commitments kept me busy earlier… so I planned a long route and went for it. The rain came. I got soaked. But I kept going. At around 2.5 hours in, my knees started hurting again… but I really wanted to push through. By the 3-hour mark, it got darker… and the pain in my knees, back, and feet was getting hard to ignore. I’m not going to lie — I was struggling. I had to make the call to head home. I didn’t quite hit the goal I was aiming for today… but I gave it everything I had. And that counts. 🙏 Day 3, we go again 💚 #WalkForAutism #KeepGoing #AutismAwareness #RealJourney https://www.walkforautism.co.uk/fundraisers/RuthFinch @Walk for Autism
