Walk For A Cure - Anywhere

Can you help Sharon to hit their goal of £250? 🧡

I'm walking my 1st ever marathon

I'm taking part in Walk For A Cure because I want to help end the devastation of dementia.

Alzheimer's Research UK is the UK's leading dementia research charity, dedicated to finding a cure.

Research is our only chance of stopping dementia in its tracks and offering hope to the many families affected. 

Your donation will fuel cutting-edge research that could uncover new life-changing treatments, bringing us closer to a cure. 

Thank you for your support.

3rd & final training walk - Sat 29th August

Friday 11th Sep
Today, Leigh & I walked from Nelson (mile 86) through to Huncoat (mile 74).  

Including our walks to/from our homes & trains stations on to & off from the towpath (plus a detour at Burnley 'Gannow Top' where it is not possible to follow the towpath), we walked 15 miles.  

It's HARD.  It's hard on the hips - all the one level walking seems actually more difficult than a few undulations, and it's hard on the feet - the burn is real.  

Oh well, bring On Saturday 19th - come rain or shine - it will be a minimum of 26.2 miles &is expected to take us around 11 hours!!!  Every £1 will propel us forward.  

Ever grateful.

2nd training walk.

Saturday 8th Aug
Last time I did 7.2 miles....today Leigh & I did 11.98 miles.....ouch!

Day 1...training

Sunday 19th Jul
Solo walk for me. 
I'm just going to set off and walk. 
I don't want to overdo it or get an injury but i want to push myself and walking alone is hard. 
Hoping for between 6 and 9 miles.
Off I go...wish me luck......

Thank you to my Sponsors
