Blimey

31st July 2006

I've received my first sponsorship (thanks Shaky!) So that means I've really got to do this now.

Dog walking with Tyson has taken on a new image - head up, brisk walking instead of the usual trudge...!!

Steve informs me that I need a heart rate monitor and a decent pedometer...yes boss!

Pedometer would be a good idea - I'd love to know how many steps I have walked when I finish my trek next year! I feel like there will be something kind of gratifying about knowing just how far I've come...!

Promises of sponsorship are coming in - which is really nice, as most of the people I've told so far already do so much for Cancer Research UK.

I'm still on the look out for fundraising ideas - Shaky, your idea of me doing the trek naked for extra publicity I don't think is the best idea you've ever had!!

Hilary has offered to come and sing for me if I have any public events....dear me, I need to get my thinking cap on!!

Also been on the look out for nice walks that I can take Ty and that will challenge me a little bit too - watch this space for recommendations for woodland walks!
