Day 7

What a lovely sunny afternoon it was 🌞 got today's steps in by shopping this morning, then for a walk with some friends and did some housework. Last day of the challenge tomorrow! 

Day 6

Went for a run this morning, with what used to be my feet, but are now bandaged masses of injury 😂 Can't wait for my new running socks to arrive. 
After a nice family lunch, I had a pleasant walk around near where I live, and later killed off the last few hundred steps doing boring things like housework. All in all, a nice day!! Happy Easter everyone! 🐰 

Day 5

Great day! SO SUNNY 🌞 Walked round Attenborough Nature Reserve with my Dad which was lovely and later round a local park with my bestie and her kids. Hope I keep up the steps volume post-challenge as it feels good (my feet disagree) however will have to see as I'm conveniently on annual leave this week so it's less likely...but possible! 😃
Thanks again for all the support and donations everyone! It's great to walk/run with such purpose and cause xx

Day 4: Toe Injuries and Dodgy Website

Ok so this is not the most user friendly of websites and "Map My Fitness" has messed up the numbers a bit so I've disconnected it and am now manually updating them. Just FYI!

Today I sustained 5 blisters on various toes while out running and walking. I suspect my new trainer socks may be to blame! Likely to be bandaged for the rest of the challenge haha.

Day 3: Team Steps and Snail Rescue

Another day another (>) 40,000 across the team's participants! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
And a snail rescue 🐌 Dude was just chillin on the pavement so I carried it to some plants 🌱
Thank you for all the support and donations today everyone! ❤️ 

Day 2: Fundraising

IT'S A TEAM EFFORT! There are 4 of us from the same team at work getting these steps in every day at the moment which is so great - massive shout out to Natasha, Nick and Jamie who are sharing this page and helping to raise funds too! That's gonna be a total of 320,000 steps walked by the end of Tuesday! 
Major thanks to all the support and donations from everyone as well!!! xxx

Day 2: Steps

Enjoyed a lovely 3 mile stroll down to Trent Lock and back this morning. That accounted for 7315 steps of today (to be auto-added by "Map My Fitness" app over night). 
Rest of today's steps were racked up through house cleaning and lunch with family. 

Day 1 Fundraising

Thanks everyone for your support! 🙌 I did not expect to hit my fundraising target on day one (wow!) so I've extended it to £200. 

EDIT: Thanks to some further donations I've extended the target again, to £450! 

Thanks to all you donors, this is such a brilliant organisation we're supporting 🥳❤️🌈

Day 1: 10568 steps

Hit target for day 1 with a combo of running, food shopping and general mooching about.
