Story

So 2021 marks the year I turn the big 40! 🤫

Anyone that knows me knows I'm larger than life in more ways than one, however the time has come for me to get fit for my 40's and start looking after this bod a bit better. 

Now, I could just start with something fairly simple, such as 10,000 steps a day or a marathon length for January but nope......not me. I'm setting myself a bit of a beast and would like to walk and row the equivalent of John O'Groats to Lands End, all 874 miles of it!! All before I turn 40 on the 29th March 2021!  I loves a challenge I do 😂🤭

Now, I realise this bright idea leaves me with around 90 days to get this done and by my calculations I need to clock up around 10 miles a day to chip away at the 874 mile total! 

I will probably bore you all to death with updates and of course the odd whinge about my feet/knees/back hurting but I would love it if I could raise a bit of money at the same time. 

I would like to be clear, I am doing this for myself and my health, however the extra motivation of seeing my efforts help this charity will spur me on my way. 2020 has hit all charities hard but ELF is the charity I work for and is closest to my heart, so anything I can do to help or any dosh you guys can spare it would be very greatly appreciated 😘

Many thanks for reading if you've read this far, wish me luck 😉🏃‍♀️👍🏃🦶🚣‍♀️
