My last walk!

Wednesday 30th Sep
Cutting it a bit fine but I did make it to 50km (or 51km) before the end of the month by doing a last 5km this evening with my friend Hattie :) Thank you again everyone for all of your support!! Well done us!

Evening stroll

Friday 25th Sep
I was driving a lot yesterday but managed to get out for a light evening stroll with my mom :)

Not far to go!

Wednesday 23rd Sep
After today’s walk, I think I’ll just have 2-3 more nice short walks before the end of month to finish! The end is in sight!
I’ve found the challenge harder than expected - more than anything it’s been tough finding time amidst family life, illness, and work. But all for a very worthy cause, so very worth it :)

Today’s walk

Sunday 20th Sep
I’m down with the inevitable back to school cold, but still managed a gentle 4km walk today despite the blocked nose!

Gentle walk :)

Sunday 20th Sep
It’s been a busy week and hard to get much walking in but got just below 4km in yesterday, and will go again today to keep on track :)

Walk no.5

Tuesday 15th Sep
I had a break at the end of last week because I was feeling unwell, but back to it now :)

Walk no. 4

Monday 7th Sep

Finishing off week 1!

Sunday 6th Sep
Rounding off week 1 with a 5.6k stroll, still listening to my audiobook :)

Walk no.2

Thursday 3rd Sep
A shorter one today, but I got to stroll through Alexandra Palace park with some friends which is a lovely way to start the day

Happy September!

Tuesday 1st Sep
It’s the 1st of September so I thought I’d get the ball rolling and complete my first 5k morning walk of the month! I’m listening to the audiobook of Twice by Mitch Albom which I’m enjoying so far. See you next time H x

Thank you all so much!

Monday 17th Aug
I'm amazed at how much has been donated in such a short space of time, and just want to say a huge thank you for donating, sharing, or even just looking at this page :)

When my friend got his diagnosis we were shocked, he's in his 20s, is healthy, and had very few symptoms. 

Since then, as much as I've tried to be there for him, I've felt pretty useless. We don't live in the same city, I can't attend all of his appointments with him, and it's not always safe for me to be with him whilst his immune system is compromised.

So, when I saw this fundraiser advertised in the hospital when I was last there with him for an appointment, I felt like it was something I could do. 

It might not change the rubbish time he has ahead of him during treatment, but we at least hope that it means others can get access to the support they need when they're going through their own rubbish times. 

Thanks all, and much love. x

Getting started
