Lyle Hill Walking

Just walked the Lyle Hill with Kayrn, good times, good chat.
Went a different route this time which included some steps which was good for the training.
Still finding the steep decline quite taxing on my lower legs, but no cramps today.. yay!

73% Raised!!!!

Well that's us up to 73% Raised to date!!!
A grand total of  £2,098 that is just 8 days into this.
I think we are going to blast the £3,000 mark.
Only another 7% and I'm absolutely, totally, definately going to China!!!!
Can't thank everyone enough...

Inner circle walk

Training going well. Was really tired this morning and just wanted to lie in my bed but got the walking boots on and headed for Largs with my dad.
Parked the car in Largs and headed off on the boat for Millport. Walked from the ferry to the top if the Island and then cut across the Sheuchans to the golf course and down into the town. Was a lovely day apart from being a bit cold but nothing that a coffee at the Ritz Cafe couldn't sort out.
Feet feeling a bit sore today, looking forward to putting my feet up even if just for a short while!
Here are some pictures of the day.

Nice inscription stone

So yesterday was an exciting day for me. My weightwatchers leader Susan arranged for me to have an interview with the record and I was treated to a makeover and hair done at Taylor Fergussons in Glasgow. I was treated like a celebrity and all in the aid of Celebrating my weightloss achievements and a good way of advertising my sponsored walk. There will be a link in the article with my justgiving address so people can donate, so hopefully will generate a lot of interest and raise awareness of the Alzheimers society. Was a great day, and a good laugh! Especially me trying to balance on high heals!! Lol
Pics will follow!! Watch this space...

Just did my first hike up hill by the falls of Bruer. Was lovely to see.
Went up quite high don't know how steep but got me hot and can really feel the pull on my leg muscles. Lots of stretches done on return to the hotel.
Feeling positive. x

Let the training begin!

Heading up to Pitlochry to start my training programme :-)
Have got some hiking boots to try out. Will keep you posted how I get on!
