Well. Welcome to this thread.
You may be surprised why it is here or happy it is here. Then again: ‘You have got to be joking! Do you know what is wrong with me?’ may be your response.
This all began on the Extreme Fatigue thread. On there several people wanted and needed inspiration/incentive to get out and walk. Many people see the benefits of it in their life and to help on this; mad journey, train ride, rollercoaster ride and other positively rude words journey called Breast Cancer.
It is not a thread created to make anyone feel less than they do at present. It is not a thread that will set people against one another. Being competitive with yourself or a simple challenge to yourself is the point, but not a race against others is a key premis.
The idea is that you can do any of these or none:
Well here goes.
Either it will grow and blossom, with lots of lovely people benefiting. Or I will have egg all over my face – not for the first time in my chequered life and career.
Leolady – may be adding in the odd gallop to my walks.
PS if you don't like us don't be cruel.
Hello Violetsniff,
Thank you for your kind reply and thoughts, a lot of this makes sense. You mentioned persuasion, this is a definite, if I ask mum to go somewhere with me and she says no, I say, I'll leave it and then she'll say oww oww I'll come with you. We have gone on like this and now mum will go virtually anywhere with me and this is lovely and makes me feel privileged - with this both my brother and sister now seem to think it is a given, that they don't need to take mum out and that mum and I are now a 'package'. I find this so very sad, very sad that they both can't see on the joys they are missing out on and more so, how on earth must my dear mum feel. Its at the point now if my brother was to ask mum to join them on a day out I know mum wouldn't feel confident enough to be with them and they certainly wouldn't try and coax mother into going (this would actually help, making her feel wanted and needed), all so very sad. Thank you for your advice and kind words I will work on this.
Have you any challenges set for today (Tuesday)?
I'm still feeling good about todays/yesterdays walk, Monday, it was my longest yet, I got out and away I went - I have found out that I don't like walking 'down hill' silly you'd think uphill would be worse. I want to walk 'up hill' to increase my work out, trouble is I have to come back hahaha 
Wishing everyone a restful night and heres to a fresh new tomorrow xxx
Good luck ! Hope all goes well 
xx
Gentle hugs
We will all be here waiting for the good news

Life is like a boxing match, defeat is declared not when you fall ..... But when you refuse to stand up again ....... So, I get knocked down but I get up again. x
