My Updates

We smashed it!

Monday 14th Sep
A huge thank you for all your support and generosity.  We had a fantastic day and all our training paid off.  No pulls or strains, and we felt like we could've carried on!

The picture is from our last rest stop at 21 miles.  The team stayed together til the final leg when Ebru went ahead.  She finished 108th and the rest of us 138-142.  835 registered and 639 finished.  Our team did an amazing job and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.

The event so far has raised £373, 672.  Boxhill Yogis raised £3356 to date.  Thank you all for helping us along the way 

10 hours to go

Saturday 12th Sep
In just 10 hours we will be at the start line.  We're all very excited for the big day.  Thanks so much for your support, it means so much to our team.  And thank you for your generosity, we have raised over £3000 for this incredible charity.

The next update will be when we get home tomorrow, please think of us tomorrow

last training session

Sunday 6th Sep
this morning we hiked up and down the surrey hills for 15 miles in the glorious sunshine.  Just one week to go, we are feeling strong and up for the challenge, 26.2 miles and elevation almost as high as mount Snowdon!

we've had fun training together

Nearly there!

Sunday 30th Aug
yesterday was our penultimate training session before the big day.  It rained most of the morning...our 1st wet session.  Let's hope 13th is a dry day. 

Thanks everyone for your support xx

4 weeks to go

Sunday 16th Aug
we've been enjoying our weekly long walks together getting ourselves stronger and fitter for the big day which is only 4 weeks away now!

I've been to the Lake District for a week and loved climbing up the mountains including Great Gable, Skiddaw and Red Pike.

Today I walked with another team member Ebru, 16 miles around Boxhill.  Next week will be our biggest walk before the big day.  We still have a few weeks of cross training and core work to do.  I've been skipping, cycling and trying to jog up hills.   I feel my lungs are getting stronger.

1st training session

Sunday 5th Jul
this morning at 7 am our training began.  9 miles in under 3 hours.  This is the furthest some of our team have ever walked and we smashed it in a respectable time.  We trekked up and down the Surrey Hills and enjoyed every minute of it.  Feeling very optomistic for the team completing the challenge on 13 September.

Thanks to all of you that have sponsored us, your support and encouragement will keep us going
