Well this is the first blog I have ever wrote..... so I will begin ......
Are you ready for the ups and downs.... as I am sure it will be a rollercoaster.... My life is pretty hectic... my husband is at sea ( Royal Navy ) I work full time ( Police Community Support Officer ) I have a 14 year old son and a 19 year old daughter ( who sadly spends most of her time in Prison ).
I will also tell you that my Mum died of breast cancer 14 years ago, I was 22 years old. So it was that what inspired me to contribute towards the breast cancer charity.
I took part in the moonwalk in 2006 and managed to complete the half moon and enjoyed the whole experience.
The year after 2007 I did the race for life and ran the whole of the course ( a huge achievment for myself )
So after taking this year off, I felt that I would like to rise to the challenge of the full moon walk.....so on the morning of the 16th October 2008, I waited patiently till 0900 hours and then submitted my application.
Sunday 19th October my application was confirmed. I had my place in the Playtex Moonwalk 2009. I can't explain the elation I felt, I cried and screamed with joy.
I spent most of the day on the Sunday preparing my training schedule for the coming months. But couldn't resist a brisk 3 mile walk.
These are the miles I have done so far this week....
Sunday 19/10/08 3 miles
Tuesday 21/10/08 3miles
Wednesday 22/10/08 2 miles
Thursday 23/10/08 3 miles
So that's my first week in......yikes.....here goes....
