Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm challenging myself to walk 15000 steps a day in January to raise money for the Motor Neurone Disease Association. 

I currently average about 5000 steps a day and think exercising is boring, so this is going to be horrible and I'm going to hate it. Really, truly, hate it. I already feel sorry for my poor family who will have to live with the beast I will become for 31 consecutive days. 

Honestly, short of actual torture I can't think of anything I'd like to do less on a daily basis during the coldest and most miserable month of the year. But I'm going to do it, because I want anyone who sponsors me to know that I'm really earning their support and charity donations to MNDA. 

My Dad has been living with MND for 4 years now and it is the cruellest disease. He used to love exercising (mad fool) but now he can't move his own body. So I'll move mine every day for a month, cursing myself regularly but determined to do it. 

I hope you will consider sponsoring me. 

Thank you,
