Day 5 and 6

The weekend. So I was going to do a morning walk on Saturday but that didn't happen as was far too tired to wake up. But I did make up for it on Sunday. 

Beningbrough Hall walk didn't happen either because I didn't want to walk along the road, the river has made that route boggy. So instead we walked from Southbank to Riccall which was 9 miles in total. So I'll take that, thank you very much. That's chipped a bit off my marathon total. 

Follow along for more updates and don't forget that if you're able to chuck a few pennies this way, then it would be much appreciated! 

Photos below as always! 

If anyone has any suggestions of walks, slack or WhatsApp me!

Day 4

There will be no additional walking today but never fear for I am making up for it on the weekend....

Saturday I am volunteering for York Unlocked and will be posted at Bishopthorpe Palace, so I am walking there and back rather than driving (4 miles). Then on Sunday I am walking to Beningbrough Hall, I want to walk from my house which would be 7 miles but my girlfriend and cheerleader, Claire, is hinting strongly that we start from her house making it almost 10 miles - that is just one way people!! Soooo, keep donating and watch this space for further updates - photos will follow for the weekend update. I may not be walking come Monday morning!

Thaaaat's riiiight! No complacency just cause you got your medal 🦯

Day 3

I forgot to actually post an update yesterday, thankfully you can't take back the money already donated! Anyway, I did another treadmill session. More sweaty face incoming, you only have to look at it, I live with it. Until the next update....

Day 2

Another 2km on the treadmill. This morning I watched a bit of Who Do You Think You Are, which featured Mel C. A bit of information you didn't require but there you have it! 

I increased the speed as was a bit short on time, did you know we have this thing called work that we do each day?! 

Another sweaty face photo for you all to enjoy! 😂

It's the first day of the month and I've done 1.24 miles (2km) already (pat on the back please if you see me walking down the corridor on campus - but if you know me, you know you probably won't see me! Because I am an enigma.)

Donate please. It's for a good cause. And my medal.
