About Me
Hi! I'm Paul You'll probably see my name around quite a lot. I'm the co-owner of Walkmates, but more importantly, a fellow walker... I built Walkmates (walkmate as it was then) back in 2010. I'd just signed up for the national three peaks challenge - with a much younger body than I have no, that's for sure, and really didn't know anyone to hike with. I signed up to all the walking groups on facebook, and they were either too full of egos, or generally just people posting about walks they'd done. So I built walkmates. A site built just to get someone to walk with. The 2010 site eventually closed, because various life events, but it was an itch I couldn't quite scratch. Fast forward to 2025 (!!) and we're back. The world has changed a lot since the original walkmate days, but I'm excited to see where it leads us. When you see my around the site, you're seeing me as Paul, a fellow walker. A father, husband and beer enthusiast. Please don't think any of my walks are any different from the next person, I'm just as likely to get us lost as them :)
