Being active outdoors is how I switch off from work and switch on to the world&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;to our environment, to nature and being with friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And I\u2019m not joking about being unskilled. I started gig rowing this year and it sums up why I love getting outside: thanks to some&nbsp;<em>very<\/em>&nbsp;patient Devon rowers, I\u2019ve gone from being totally hopeless to being slightly better than totally hopeless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But being out on the water, in gorgeous&nbsp;surrounding, learning, trying, failing and laughing is fabulous. Which is what the outdoors brings&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;joy to my day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why do you love the outdoors?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve loved being active outdoors ever since I was&nbsp;little&nbsp;kid. One of my earliest memories is Dad waking me and my brother up one summer morning hours before dawn. We must have been about six and eight. We walked to the nearest orchard (which felt&nbsp;<em>ages<\/em>&nbsp;away) and stood shivering in the silence in our wellington boots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few birds started tweeting, then a few sang, then&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;suddenly this extraordinary wave of birdsong swept round us. It was sensational and magical. I\u2019ll never forget it&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;I can still hear that wave of sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that\u2019s why I love&nbsp;getting&nbsp;outside. Being active outdoors helps make us healthier and happier and more connected with ourselves, our world and with loved ones and friends. It&nbsp;helps us make memories with the people we care about. And you can\u2019t get much better than that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How do you get outside?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any way I can! My&nbsp;favourite&nbsp;way is to be active with friends. I\u2019m a member of the local running club and&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;year round, whatever the weather, with head torches on in winter&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;we head out for a run each Wednesday night and Sunday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Setting a fixed time aside each week to get outside really helps make it&nbsp;happen, and&nbsp;creates a strong sense of camaraderie too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the great thing is there are similar clubs in pretty much any sport or activity you can mention all over the country&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;people to meet with, laugh with, chat with, be active outside with. You never regret getting out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s your&nbsp;favourite&nbsp;route?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A stretch of coastline that extends from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/explore.osmaps.com\/route\/2851281\/country-walking-bolt-head-devon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bolt Head<\/a>&nbsp;in the east to Bolt Tail in the west is one of the most scenic in Devon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t<section id=\"block_50105ec3a0a572a530072ff0ade108e5\" class=\"Inner InnerButtons\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row justify-content-center justify-content-md-start\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-auto\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"InnerButtons__button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/explore.osmaps.com\/route\/2851281\/country-walking-bolt-head-devon\" class=\"Button Button--orange \" target=\"_blank\" >\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"Button__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\tBolt Head route in OS Maps \t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"Button__arrow\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n<g>\n<path d=\"M5 12H19M19 12L12 5M19 12L12 19\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/>\n<\/g>\n<\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-auto\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"InnerButtons__button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/shop.osmaps.com\/map-of-south-devon\/\" class=\"Button Button--default \" target=\"_blank\" >\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"Button__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\tPaper map for Bolt Head: OS Explorer OL20 \t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"Button__arrow\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n<g>\n<path d=\"M5 12H19M19 12L12 5M19 12L12 19\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/>\n<\/g>\n<\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\n\t\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/filter\/?ambassadors=belinda-dixon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/getoutside39507958bf.blob.core.windows.net\/blobgetoutside39507958bf\/discover\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/os_champions_bel_dixon2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5209\" srcset=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/os_champions_bel_dixon2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/os_champions_bel_dixon2-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/os_champions_bel_dixon2-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Bel Dixon.

Honing my kayaking skills will&nbsp;open up&nbsp;all kinds of sea kayaking adventures, so that\u2019s the big motivation there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m also heading off to the Isles of&nbsp;Scilly&nbsp;for the World Gig Rowing Championship next spring&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;definitely just&nbsp;as a spectator, rather than a rower. But I\u2019ll also take the opportunity to go island hopping, sea swimming and camping there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019<\/strong><strong>s the most essential thing on your kit list?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Swim suit&nbsp;&amp; towel&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;you never know when you can squeeze in a dip. Snacks&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;I get twitchy if I don\u2019t have a stack of snacks to eat. Running trainers.&nbsp;Waterproofs&nbsp;(of course!), a cheap down jacket I can just stuff in the bottom of a bag. A compass if I\u2019m off out onto&nbsp;Dartmoor, a paper map for planning and if I\u2019m heading out somewhere new to me. And&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;always&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;my OS Maps&nbsp;app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Who inspires you to get outside?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone who does it. The kids&nbsp;loving&nbsp;just running around. The friends who sea swim early each morning,&nbsp;year-round. The kayakers and rowers who are so generous in sharing their skills. The hikers, runners &amp; climbers who kindly share their expertise. And anyone who makes the effort. Those who find it hard&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;rather than easy&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;are the most impressive of all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What do you prefer: Paper or digital map?&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>(Controversial we know!)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both &#8211; Seeing routes &amp; planning I prefer paper &amp; getting a sense of the bigger picture on the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For working out distance for runs &amp; cycles, then OS Maps,&nbsp;and also&nbsp;for checking I&nbsp;can&nbsp;where I think I am!<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row justify-content-center\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-auto\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"Champion__social-heading\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tFollow for more\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"Champion__social-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/beldixon\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"instagram\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><g transform=\"translate(-117 238)\"><g transform=\"translate(117 -238)\"><path d=\"M12,18a6,6,0,1,0-6-6A6,6,0,0,0,12,18Zm0-2a4,4,0,1,0-4-4A4,4,0,0,0,12,16Z\" fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\"\/><path d=\"M18,5a1,1,0,1,0,1,1A1,1,0,0,0,18,5Z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/><path d=\"M1.654,4.276C1,5.56,1,7.24,1,10.6v2.8c0,3.36,0,5.041.654,6.324a6,6,0,0,0,2.622,2.622C5.559,23,7.24,23,10.6,23h2.8c3.36,0,5.04,0,6.324-.654a6,6,0,0,0,2.622-2.622C23,18.441,23,16.76,23,13.4V10.6c0-3.36,0-5.04-.654-6.324a6,6,0,0,0-2.622-2.622C18.44,1,16.76,1,13.4,1H10.6c-3.36,0-5.04,0-6.324.654A6,6,0,0,0,1.654,4.276ZM13.4,3H10.6c-1.713,0-2.878,0-3.778.075a4.317,4.317,0,0,0-1.638.361A4,4,0,0,0,3.436,5.184a4.317,4.317,0,0,0-.361,1.638C3,7.722,3,8.887,3,10.6v2.8c0,1.713,0,2.878.075,3.778a4.317,4.317,0,0,0,.361,1.638,4,4,0,0,0,1.748,1.748,4.315,4.315,0,0,0,1.638.361C7.722,21,8.887,21,10.6,21h2.8c1.713,0,2.878,0,3.778-.075a4.316,4.316,0,0,0,1.638-.361,4,4,0,0,0,1.748-1.748,4.316,4.316,0,0,0,.361-1.638C21,16.278,21,15.113,21,13.4V10.6c0-1.713,0-2.878-.075-3.778a4.315,4.315,0,0,0-.361-1.638,4,4,0,0,0-1.748-1.748,4.317,4.317,0,0,0-1.638-.361C16.278,3,15.113,3,13.4,3Z\" fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\"\/><\/g><\/g><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row justify-content-center Champion__button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-auto\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/osmaps.com\/discover\/os-champions\/\" class=\"Button Button--default \" target=\"_self\" >\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"Button__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\tAll OS Champions\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/article>\n\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meet Bel Dixon &#8211; Sea swimmer, river paddler, happy hiker, Dartmoor bivvyier, really-rather-rubbish climber.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3520,"parent":0,"template":"","tags":[],"regions":[62],"champion_status":[106],"class_list":["post-3336","champion","type-champion","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","regions-south-west","champion_status-previous"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
