To Woodhall & beyond...

Saturday morning, 8am and off we set - a quick 6 mile stroll before breakfast (well, brunch).

It was a beautiful morning for a stroll round Woodhall Spa and along the Witham from Stixwold Station - I'm sure I'm solar powered (which helps), and Bev was on good form as usual.

I know, 6 miles is nothing compared to 192, but we all have to start again somewhere! We're looking forward to stretching the legs somewhere a bit hillier than Martin - and lucky old Bev is off to a nice little cottage for a weeks R&R, which she thoroughly deserves!

Tomorrow should be fun - we're off to Through the Lens Photography to see Adam as he's offered to take some photos of us in our walking kit that we can use for our fundraising - what a nice chap!

I'll post the photos so you can have a good laugh.....

Well, we've agreed to it....

I seem to remember someone once saying to me - "Never agree to anything when you've got a glass of wine in your hand." I never was very good at taking advice, always had to go my own way and now it seems I'll be going Wainwright's way east to west with my mate Bev.

I'm not actually sure who came up with the idea of the C2C, but we both seemed to be looking for a challenge for completely different reasons, and the Coast 2 Coast fit the bill.

Now all we have to do is train.... oh yes, and raise loads of money for our respective charities - Children with Cancer for me, Make a Wish Foundation for Bev. Anyone who wishes to sponsor us can through our Virgin Money Giving page www.virginmoneygiving.com/team/c2c2013

I'll post more about our training and fundraising activities as we get ourselves organised and get some events sorted.
