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.

Moomy sorry to be daft - what is RNCM?
Seaspirit it looks great where you are, I hope you get a swim today. Have you got your special swimming gloves with you?
Will be going for a walk soon before it gets too hot for the old dog, here is a pic from yesterday. It’s only a hedge but I was taken by the colour and the shine on the leaves!
Have a good day everyone
Great photos, all! Violetsniff your day out sounded perfect, a real hidden gem. seaspirit44 I love your sea view, and also very impressed with you and OH's pre-holiday life laundry, I so need to clear out many areas of the house - I think I'm waiting till I manage to retire!
Nordic walking on Thursday was lovely before the day got hot, walked to a quiet area outside the park, orchards and herb gardens as well as water. Imagine lots of midges later in the day but luckily the class is early.
Too hot today but hopefully a walk tomorrow.... HFxx
