An RNLI fundraiser perfect for M.E.
Well, I never thought I'd be partaking in a physical fundraiser, given my disability but I'm so excited that there is one I know I can achieve. Not only that, one for a charity I am very passionate about!!
So throughout May I will be walking a mile a day to raise funds for the RNLI, a charity that is funded solely on donations.
You probably think a mile a day isn't a challenge, especially for those of you who regularly run and train for marathons, but for me, especially after COVID, it is a challenge. My M.E. means I have to pace myself every day, if I overdo it one day then I'll certainly pay for it in the following days. A mile a day is just enough for me.
You're probably asking why I am not doing this for an M.E. charity? Well I just love the RNLI and what they do, regular people giving up their own time to volunteer, and risk their own lives to save others.
After visiting many a lifeboat station they also are some of the most friendliest people, have such a great community and always welcome James and I (plus Odin) to their station and shops.
So, please if you can, I ask for your support in sponsorship, all the money raised goes direct to the RNLI to keep them doing the amazing work they do.
Thank you,
Emily.

The last mile

Tuesday 20th May I'm at 32 miles, more than expected at this stage and I'm only counting the miles I actually record, not the day to day walking about.
Walking home from work.
Wednesday 14th May Today I've done a thing I've not done in years and walked the 2 miles home from work!
Day 3 and 4
Sunday 4th May Day 3 was a Saturday and after a really busy week at work I'm normally needing to rest. However I'm pleased I made it up and out to achieve my walk.
