Closer to May Day

Monday 30th Mar
As March draws to a close I'm watching the weather, hoping it will at least stay dry with not too many April showers, so I can get lots of practice miles logged ahead of May 1st.

I'm determined to reach, or even surpass, my 31 mile target after having to pull out of The Reindeer Run back in December.  The RNLI are an amazing bunch of people and truly deserve all our support.

I'm taking on the Mayday Mile Challenge to support RNLI volunteers!

Wednesday 25th Mar

This May, I’m completing a mile-a-day challenge to help RNLI crews save lives at sea.

You may wonder why the RNLI, when I live in the middle of the country, but as you can see from the pic, when I do get the chance to visit the coast even taking photos involves getting my feet (sometimes more) wet.

During summertime, more people flock to beaches and coastal towns to make the most of everything they have to offer – from glorious sunshine to adventurous watersports. And as temperatures rise, so do calls from people in trouble in the water.

The RNLI aren't just there for when people fall overboard from boats, or when a trawler is in trouble; a lot of the rescues carried out are people using the water for leisure - swimming, paddle-boarding, kayaking...  (taking photos?)

By answering this Mayday call and giving a gift today, you can make a real, lifesaving difference. Your kindness will help give volunteers everything they need to launch to the rescue, and make sure they’re ready to face their busiest season.

Will you sponsor my RNLI Mayday Mile Challenge and support the courageous crews?
