Thank you for taking a minute to read my story! I’m doing the Munro Step Challenge in the month of September 2019, to raise money for Bloodwise! What is the Munro Step Challenge you might ask? Its a challenge from MPC to walk the equivalent number of steps that it would take to climb each continent’s tallest mountain, or Munro! I’m committing to walking the equivalent of all 7 Munro’s! That’s a total of 266,566 steps. I’ll be checking back in here to update you all with how I’m doing! My personal goal is to match the number of steps I completed in May 2019 (during MPC’s first challenge month of this year) which was 300,539 steps. So that is my goal for September & I’d love it if you’d all support me in raising funds for Bloodwise! I’m so excited to do this challenge!
As some of you know, I’ve been fighting my own battle with Cancer this year. On September 18, 2018 I was diagnosed with Stage III Breast Cancer, and over the last 11 months have successfully gone through Chemotherapy, Radiation Treatments, and now 2 Surgeries. I’m now ‘Cancer Free’. I’ve also been able to run my first 2 10k’s this year, in between treatments. I’ll also be running my third 10k at the end of September, along with actually bagging my 2nd Munro in Scotland! (Bagged my 1st in May!) This is how I’ll be finishing off this September Challenge & I could not be more excited about it!! Thank you for all your support! It will be greatly appreciated by Bloodwise & you’ll be helping them to #beatbloodcancer! xx
