Story

Team Update

🌟 Our amazing team at MSH has already covered 44 miles (72km) for our Share the Marathon challenge! 🌟

we’ve already gone beyond one—and we might even smash out two! 💪🏽🏃‍♀️🏊‍♀️🚶‍♀️

To celebrate International Women’s Day, a group of My Sisters’ House staff & volunteers are embracing the spirit of a challenge ourselves. On 8th March, we will take on a team marathon challenge.

Between us, we’ll cover the full marathon distance (26.2 miles or 42.2km) by walking or swimming in bits and pieces throughout the day.

Some of us will clock up miles walking during lunch breaks. Others will take the dog for an extra-long morning stroll. A few will head to the pool for a morning swim or an evening cycle to the shore.

It’s all about teamwork and determination!

There are 14 of us participating in the challenge!

As team lead, (Marcia) I'm committed to swim 64 lengths - I know I can do 45 lengths before feeling waterlogged. So for the challenging, I am going with 64 lengths of the 25 meter pool or 1609 meters or 1.6 kilometres or one miles! Either way it will be a personal challenge.

Avril is taking on 10 miles in preparation for a 10 miles run in April. Others will be updating over the weekend! Aimee S took a horse ride and a 5k run! Aimee T and Nicky took a walk on the shore!

Amazing and inspiring!
