** THIS YEARS CHALLENGE **
As most of you know I love a challenge...but this year I have even more reason to partake in a ridiculous activity!
Giselle was in an accident last year resulting in a pretty serious spinal chord injury, leaving her with limited feeling in her legs.
Since the accident I cannot believe how hard she has worked to get herself back to normal. Whether it’s squatting with her Zimmer frame in between courses at the dinner table, wiggling her foot and filming it to show us all, swimming and even building her own equipment to get around easier in her cute little workshop class in hospital.
She’s an inspiration. I will leave the blogging to her as I tend to babble on... This year I will be attempting to raise £5000 to buy her a smart drive. Her description when I asked what she wanted was ‘a bit like cruise control for a wheelchair’ .
She tells me that this will make her life in a wheelchair ( the little time se has left in a wheelchair!) that little bit easier; so along with a few friends we are making it our mission to get her one.
My FIRST challenge of the year will be the National 3 Peaks Challenge in August. 3 mountains in 24 hours... Who doesn’t love shin splints anyway?
This page will be running all year for you lovely people to sponsor! We will keep you updated with Giselle’s progress, and all the challenges we will be taking part in throughout the year!
Thank you, B xxx
