💗 100 Miles for Breast Cancer Now – October 💗

Well… this wasn’t quite the announcement I had planned! 😂

I’ve recently been diagnosed with breast cancer.

It’s a sentence I never imagined I’d be writing, but I’ve decided that if I’m going to have to go through this, I’d like to use it to do something positive — raising money for Breast Cancer Now and helping to keep breast cancer awareness going.

I honestly don’t know if I would have found my lump when I did if I hadn’t been so vigilant about checking myself. After a dear friend was diagnosed with cancer, I became much more aware of the importance of checking, and #Coppafeel really helped me understand how important it is to know what’s normal for your own body.

So, rather than keep focusing on the if’s, but’s and maybe’s, I thought I’d put my energy into something positive and set myself a little challenge… 🤦‍♀️😂

100 miles during October! 🚶‍♀️💗

I’d absolutely love it if you could support me with a donation to Breast Cancer Now. Every donation, big or small, will help.

And if donating isn’t possible, please don’t worry — a message of encouragement or simply sharing this post would mean so much to me and would help keep the message spreading.

The money raised helps Breast Cancer Now combine the power of science and support to change breast cancer, funding research and providing information and support for people affected by breast cancer.

And if there’s one thing I’d really like people to take from this, it’s this:

Please check your boobs — you men too! 😂

Get to know what’s normal for you, and if something changes, get it checked. 💗

I never expected to find myself on this side of breast cancer awareness, but if sharing my story encourages even one person to check themselves, then something positive has come from it.

So… 100 miles. October. One step at a time. 👟💗

Please donate if you can, share if you can, and send me all the encouragement you’ve got!

Thank you for being behind me. ❤️
