The South Downs Way...Here We Come!

"above all do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness; I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it."

Soren Kierkegaard

Well, after months and months of planning the time has finally come as Jon, Curph, Chappers and myself will be setting off on Monday to complete the walk along The South Downs Way in aid of Cancer Research UK.

I haven't really got much to add except for saying a very big thank you for everyone's wholehearted support and donations so far received...I'm sure I speak for the rest of the lads as well as myself when I say that I aim to do the event proud, and make sure that we reach our final destination on Eastbourne Promenade next Friday, after walking 100 miles over five days!

Further donations can still be made prior to, during, and after the event, and any amounts however small will be greatly appreciated ~ please find my 'Just Giving' sponsors page via the link attached below:


As mentioned in my previous blog, I'll be writing about the experience of the trek itself on my return, but in the meantime I'll be uploading some photo's along The South Downs Way via Facebook on a daily basis.
And finally...
I'd just like to say a big thanks to Ange in NZ, and to Trace...for recently lifting my spirits and making me smile for remembering many happy times spent in their respective company!
I must also pay a great sense of gratitude to my great friend, Elona (pictured bottom left) ~ she has remained in my life for the past 12 years throughout all of my trials & tribulations, and has always provided me with much love & comfort, whilst always offering her unwavering support & friendship 

Thanks for all of your love & support...please wish us luck & we aim to do you all proud!
This is for you Lou and all the many other brave souls ♥
