I’m taking on Winter Walk and walking 150K in December for families facing baby loss

I’ve committed to taking on Winter Walk and walking 150k in December for every much-loved baby sadly not here today and especially for my friend's little girl Sienna and many others that have tragically lost their child. 

Sands ensure that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve when facing the toughest of times. They campaign for change, provide training for midwives and healthcare professionals, and support research so that fewer babies die and so that less families experience the tragedy of losing their baby. Anything you are able to donate means so much.

Thank you.

My Updates

Wow, what a challenge it's been!

Monday 22nd Dec
Apologies for the lack of updates - there has been so much going on this month but I have been plodding away hard on the treadmill and have reached my 100km target and smashed my fundraising target so thank to everyone for the support. It has been a hard struggle with feeling crap from this cold but am pleased I didn't give up. However, after a discussion with my husband over a glass or two of wine, I am upping my target to 150km

One week in

Tuesday 9th Dec
And already at 49.87km. But been hit by this cold virus that's going round so the last 2 days have been a struggle. Might have to slow ot down for a couple of days as I have been well over my forecasted daily trekking. Glad to have gone over £100 on my fundraising as well. Thanks everyone who has donated so far

And we're off

Monday 1st Dec
Not a bad start to December's challenge, 7.26km done today

Seems a good idea at the time

Friday 14th Nov
So after a few thoughts and maybe a beer or two and 28km done on the treadmill this week, I have decided I am going for the 100km Challenge rather than the 50km 😱😱😱. Will probably regret it 10 days in and that means need even more encouragement to do it. Please donate and keep me motivated to see this 100km through ❤️❤️❤️
