I’m taking on the Mayday Mile Challenge to support RNLI volunteers
This May, I’m completing a mile-a-day challenge to help RNLI crews save lives at sea.
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.
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?

Weekend Walking
Wednesday 23rd Apr So over the Easter time off, we visited Mersea and the caravan - taking on several walks around the island. I completed the Mersea Park Run and was one minute faster than last week. Although I am doing more than a mile in these walks, I'm likely to do the same during the May event too.
Mersea walk
Friday 18th Apr A beautiful day on Mersea Island so took ourselves off for a walk. Completed 3.1 miles at a steady pace. Share
Park run Walk
Sunday 13th Apr Completed a walk over at Cudmore Park on Mersea island as part of the Park Run program. I'm not allowed to run due to achilles heel tear which is being dealt with by AT Physio. Building up those muscles 💪 😏 Share
And so it begins
Wednesday 9th Apr Here's hoping I'll update on a daily basis, throughout May!! ShareThank you to my Sponsors
