So my main challenge which will be massive for me is one million steps in October so average 33 thousand steps a day but I’m ready to take this on for dementia I need to do something Postive since loosing my dad to the cruel illness .

To kick off we are doing a 2 day challenge over the weekend of 27-28th September, 4-5 mile kayak/ paddle board on the Stour from Grove Ferry followed by a 8.5 mile run from Canterbury to Whitstable along the Crab and Winkle Way. The following day we are cycling from Tankerton to Dover around the Viking coastal path (45-50 miles). We have around 12 great friends who are joining us for some or all of it.

During October, we and family and friends are completing further challenges including:

Walking/running 1,000,000 steps during October- Tracy

Walking/running or biking 4.0 miles per day and holding a plank for 4 minutes- me

10 thousand steps per day - Tracy’s mum (Carol Maas)

At least 7,000 steps per day - Mike Bond

Canterbury 20 mile trail run - Sylvia Barrett

Tracy’s daughter Abbi (age 13) - 30 push ups, 30 sit ups and 30 v sits per day

Aleisha and Henry Cox - at least one mile every day.

MariaLoader - 10 minutes of skipping, 10,00 steps and 100 sit ups per day

Other friends and family are adding to the challenges, details to follow…

It would really mean so much to us if you would consider helping us to reach our target in memory of our parents who lost their lives to this cruel and devastating disease.
