Champions!

Saturday 27th Sep
What a month this has been… I’ve seen the Red Roses play in Sunderland, Brighton, Bristol and Twickenham - and now they are world champions. 
I’ve walked more than 60km, and raised more than £500 for the Royal Marsden - can’t wait to let them know… thank you all for your support, and if you haven’t manage to give anything yet, but feel like you could - the page stays open for a couple more weeks…

Loving the rugby…

Saturday 20th Sep
…and walking to the stadiums is helping bring the total towards 50 quite nicely - another 8km done this weekend at Bristol. 

Half distance reached - target smashed!

Thursday 11th Sep
25km done and it’s only 11th September. Thank you to everyone who has supported so far - please give whatever you can manage if you haven’t yet - I’d love to break the £500 barrier…

Day 7

Sunday 7th Sep
A couple of trips to Brighton (rugby) have really helped to build the kilometres up - extra steps yesterday due to the carnival in Uckfield making the bus do a detour…
7 matches so far - 3 more to go - that 50km is looking doable…

Day 2

Tuesday 2nd Sep
Wow - you guys - thank you. I did not expect to hit my target so quickly. 
2 km done today - it’s quite a long way from one end of the hospital to the other!
Keep sharing and encouraging others to give - let’s get this total as high as possible for the amazing work done by RMH

Day 1

Monday 1st Sep
Always knew today would be a bit tricky to get the steps in - driving 200 miles back from Exeter does not give much opportunity - but parking at the far end of the car park at the motorway services helped get a few in. Not impressed when I got out of the car though, and the heavens opened…

Why?

Saturday 30th Aug
50k in 30 days - why would I sign up for such a challenge? 
For my dad - who was taken at the age of just 67, 16 years ago - kidney cancer. 
For my former colleagues who have fought and won, and have shown incredible strength to return to teaching. 
For Heidi and Christa - 2 colleagues who fought so bravely but were taken from us too soon. 
And, most importantly, for my son, who is currently being treated at Royal Marsden. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
