So, I would walk 500 miles, but that wouldn't really be as much of a challenge for me. I want to push myself and get moving as I spend most of my time sitting typing (or watching TV or reading). Hence,  cycling/rowing 500 miles in February (at home). I also wanted to raise money for a couple of different charities that are close to my heart, and wanted to give people the choice of where to donate their hard-earned pennies. Five is my 'lucky number' and I also really like alliteration!

Throughout February I will be forcing myself to cycle every day until I hit the 500 miles target, using a bright pink bike I bought on eBay from the North Air Ambulance.  

I am currently in typical January couch potato lockdown shape, so this will definitely be a challenge!

Any and all donations to any of the five charities would be gratefully received.

Thanks in advance!

P.S Please say yes to Gift Aid, it doesn't cost you anything. :)

The gates may be closed (again, again!), but Chester Zoo is still doing all it can to prevent extinction. From conservation at the zoo with 35,000 animals, to helping wildlife organisations across the world to manage the impact of this global crisis, Chester Zoo is determined not to let coronavirus stand in the way of its vital mission. At such a time of crisis and uncertainty for everyone, I have chosen to raise funds for Chester Zoo so they can use it where they need it most and continue to make their mission of preventing extinction a reality and ensure the survival of species for the future. Together, we can act for wildlife!
