Fundraising for Cardiac Risk in the Young
Story
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
I woke up last friday and decided to walk 800 km from St Jean Pied de Port to Santiago de Compostela in Spain, I plan to walk every day and the trip will take me five weeks. I am walking the old pilgrim route, alone in the middle of winter, carrying everything I need and sleeping in refuges. I have been going for three days now, the first two were the most challenging of my life, lets just say that I am in pain most of the time. Along the way I am trying to raise funds for a charity that I am becoming involved with, its called CRY which is appropriate. There is a link to their site below, please have a look but before you leave this page please leave a generous donation. I know times are hard but there is another bonus, for every pound you give Gift Aid will donate another 30p, thats 30p of your money that the government cant give to the banks, if you know any bankers please forward this page and maybe they can give a little something back for a very good cause.
thank you.
Mark Monday March 23rd I finally finished on saturday 21 March after walking for 31 days. I rose early and walked through the night with a torch through a lovely forest and finally arrived at the cathedral in time for the pilgrims mass which was a very emotional moment even for an atheist! it was an extraordinary undertaking, hard at times and very rewarding and I am so glad I did it. As I walked I swore that I would never do it again but having been home for a day I am already thinking about the next challenge> Thanks for your support.
