Gary and I are taking part in a monthly spinathon (along with a team of regular spinners), which started as a challenge by our lovely fitness instructor Evelyn to see if we could do a double class but has since grown and we suddenly realised that we were doing something not only special but really challenging so back in May, Evelyn suggested we do this for charity.

The journey began in January with the original double class challenge of 90 minutes of spin and growing this each month by adding on 5 minutes. In July we will be doing 2 hours and we will end in December with a 2 1/2 hour class!!! (I know right we are all mad).

The team are doing this for an amazing local charity called The Rosemary Foundation who provide hands on nursing services for patients suffering from cancer and life limiting illness within their own homes.

We appreciate that this is a local charity but many will have gone through the experience of loosing someone close through cancer or other illnesses and will know how important providing a hospice at home is for the patients and families to give the best possible end of life care.

Thank you for donating we really appreciate it (although not sure our bodies will come December!!!)

Clare, Gary and the Spinathon team xx
