5K, freaked out and famished! 😁🚶‍♀️

Sunday 7th Sep
Well dear friends,
This should have been Friday’s post and I managed to complete 5K but got fresher out down those dark lanes now that evenings are drawing in. Once safely in my little cottage, my thoughts turned to FOOD! 
I have walked up an appetite throughout. So, 46K completed ☑️ leaving the last 4K for Saturday! 🙏😁🚶‍♀️👍🌈🏋️

Blisters, Balmy skies and ‘bring it on’!

Thursday 4th Sep
Well my amazing friends and followers… quick update from a gloriously balmy Berkshire…so that’s 41/50K down, leaving 9K for tomorrow and then challenge complete! 😁🌈🎯 
Just nursing a couple of boney blisters but nothing will stand in the way of the last 9K… so, all that is left to say is…
‘Bring it on’…! 
Thank you 🙏 once again for your generosity. Tell your friends, family and colleagues as there is still plenty of time to donate to The RMCC!

Lanes, Lactic Acid and Laughter 😆

Wednesday 3rd Sep
Good morning all, 😁
Well… two days down and 20K already in the bag! 👍 Those Berkshire country lanes have never seen such determined activity. Just need to laugh off that lactic acid build up and continue to rack up those ‘Ks’! 
Day 3 upon us and looking forward to finding a gap in the rain ☔️ this afternoon to whack out some more ‘Ks’. 
Thank you 🙏 to all my wonderful friends, family and colleagues who are encouraging and supporting me all the way. There’s still time to make a donation for this amazing charity project…. Now… where are those wet trainers! 😂😂😂☔️🌈😁👍🏋️🚶‍♀️

Day 1 - walking update

Monday 1st Sep
Hi everyone,
Well, I have just smashed out the first 10K today in 1.5 hours this afternoon. Rain, thunder, sunshine and more rain… nothing will get in the way of this amazing challenge. Day 1 and already 1/5 of the way there… bring on tomorrow’s walk! 😁
 I have been overwhelmed by the amazing support and generosity in all the donations… YOU are ALL making a DIFFERENCE! 🥰🙏🎉🚶‍♀️🌈
Keep following, keep giving, keep spreading the word! 
Have a lovely evening

Weekend Workout 🏋️

Saturday 30th Aug
Hello 👋 everyone,
Well… I have the weekend to relax, limber up, stretch out and work out my first walking route/plan for Monday afternoon when it all kicks off for The RMCC September charity walk! 🎉
Thank you 🙏 once again to all those who have donated SO generously to this charity event and I know there are still a number of you who are kindly looking to sponsor me during the month of September. I’m currently placed 5th on the leaderboard for donations in the UK 🇬🇧 which is amazing! 
Now…just need to sort out my  motivational music playlist as I power walk through those beautiful Berkshire lanes. xx🙏🚶‍♀️🏋️👍😁🌈
