Hiya :) thanks for landing on my page. 

So why am I doing this? Well, I managed to rupture my Achilles tendon in July. Surgery followed in August and it's been 3 longggg months and counting, wearing this ridiculously massive surgical boot. I'm not gonna lie, it's been tough - mentally and physically.

Not being able to walk though has given me a new perspective on what I had taken for granted. And I'm itching to get back out there.

There's still a long way to go in terms of recovery, and right at this moment, a 25-mile walking challenge actually sounds pretty daunting. 

But if Greenpeace has taught me anything, it's that taking action is the most empowering thing anyone can do to overcome fears and doubts.

So I've decided to take on this challenge in a boot (physio has ok'd it) - as a show of solidarity to my amazing Greenpeace colleagues who are tirelessly campaigning for a greener, fairer future, and to raise what money I can along the way.

If you are able to chip in with a few quid, I will hobble in your honour!
