Getting our walk on for Breast Cancer Care

The fight against breast cancer is a cause close to our hearts. Friends and family have faced it with a great deal of bravery and positivity and mum and I felt we wanted to do something to help raise awareness and raise funds, so last weekend, we decided it was time to don our walking boots and embark upon the 10 mile Pink Ribbon Walk at Stourhead in Wiltshire. It was definitely a challenge (we may have omitted to do any training, despite best intentions!), but a worthwhile one that we both really enjoyed. The weather was gorgeous, the scenery stunning and we managed to complete the route in about four hours – with time for a couple of pit stops on the way!

It really was a great experience and our advice to anyone considering a charity fitness challenge would be… go for it! We live in a gorgeous part of the world and with so many events like the Pink Ribbon Walk, (which itself hosts six walks across the UK) there are huge range of walks to ease you in to the fitness challenge groove!

We walked for everyone affected by breast cancer but especially for Barbara and in loving memory of friends Kitty and Ali. We are so grateful for the donations we have received. If you can spare a few pounds to help us get there, we would really appreciate it! You can do this easily by visiting our Just Giving page.

Thank you!
