Starting to get a bit nervous now about this charity walk that I will be doing with my young daughter and best friend on Saturday. I typically try to do a challenge like this once a year. Last year I did a swimming challenge which was great & earlier this year I attempted a skipping challenge but it was an epic fail as I had a fall and injured my shoulder. However doing things for charity like this has a number of benefits including: 1. Raising money for charities in need. 2. Gaining awareness of these charities 3. Challenging your normal routine & also your own expectations of what you yourself are capable of. 4. Getting exercise. 5. Teaching my daughter that some people aren't as lucky as us & that where we can we should we should do our bit to help. 5. Creating new memories with my daughter who is growing up far too fast for my liking. 6. Spending quality time with my best friends putting the world to rights. 7. In this instance (when my daughter has had enough) getting drunk in the daytime & it being socially acceptable. So on Sunday and probably at least Monday when everything aches and I am shattered beyond even my imagination that I did make a difference. If you happen to want to support me & this great cause too that is just a bonus. Good luck to all who are participating in charity events this weekend 😇
It's that time again where I have decided to push myself to the limits for another worthy charity. This year I am raising money for Bolton Hospice enduring a 10 mile 10 pubs challenge. Although its not normally something I share so publicly I was diagnosed with MS a few years ago & since that day decided that I was going to push myself and my body to challenge myself and try new things as you never know what life will throw at you next. I will also be joined by my best mates and my 6 year old daughter who will join us for the first stretch (no pubs) as I am trying to show her how lucky we are and how we should support others in need. Any contribution you could make however small would be much appreciated... https://lnkd.in/eF8XxMsZ If you of your company would like to make a kind donation I will in turn write your name on my t-shirt and take pictures and add to social media. Every little helps and its for a good cause. #goodcause #charitywalk #10miles10pubs
