Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
About 18 months ago I sat in a Pursuit meeting and found myself volunteering to run a marathon to raise sponsorship!! Well those of you who know me, know how exercise shy I have always been, and I was horrified at what I had said. However I scaled it back, thinking I could do a 10k. I started out with a friend and did Couch-5k, I even managed one day to run as far as 7k and I was on track to do it. However Lockdown came, my running partner moved away and the 10k run was cancelled - twice - and my motivation upped and left!! I tried again with the boys, but when the hot weather came last year, along with a naughty kitten, again my motivation left me.
So then this advert kept popping up on my Facebook for a virtual walk and I thought that is achievable. I've done the Maths (well at least Bruce did) and all I have to do is walk the length of the prom and back 4 times a week. That really is achievable, and I can raise money for a charity that is close to my heart that was started and run by some of my favourite people, and will be put to good use to help people less fortunate than me in a country close to my heart (one day I will get there).
