After volunteering on the checkpoints for the 2011 Louise Smalley Challenge Walk I decided to bite the bullet and take part in the walk myself.
I will be updating my blog regularly over the course of the year to chart my progress while I train.
Darren has offered (insisted) on helping me get fitter for the walk and also to help me prepare for the the demands I wasn't expecting!
I hope you enjoy following me and if you feel inclined to sponsor the details will be up later in the year.

I hope this blog will inspire some of you to take part in the walk or just to get out there and enjoy our green and pleasant land.

Don't forget to check out the official website www.louisesmalleywalk.co.uk

Thank you.

Happy New Year

Hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Year.

I haven't been training for the last few weeks because of the festive season but kick started the whole thing again on New Year's Day.

It was only a short one but I joined the Ellis family (extended) on their annual New Year's Day walk. We went up to Eyam Moor for a round walk down to the river and back. It was VERY muddy and although the distance of the walk was only 2 miles we must have walked about 3 because of all the slipping and sliding we were doing.

It was a good short walk to get back into the swing of things (and the best for hangovers!!).

It also prepared me for my first 10 miler which was only a few days away.............
