254 days to go

The training continues with lots of walking and bike riding.  I have started twice weekly 0600 starts for bike rides with some colleagues to ride  from the city out to the Boulevard in Kew and back, for a quick 35 kms before work –beautiful time of the morning once you get over the shock of the 0515 early rise!

Walked for 2 hours with the dogs yesterday morning in the rain and thunderstorm –got thoroughly soaked but luckily it was warm.   Donations continue to come in and more pledges for support.   Likewise I have received a number of sponsorship contributions which is most welcome and pleasing.  I will be attaching a ‘sponsors’ section to the blog (once I work out how?)

Training continues

Two weeks since my last post –have been putting plenty of ‘Ks’ into my legs – cycling and plenty of walking around the local area.  Clocked up 50 kms in the bike yesterday + plus 6 km walk with the girls and dogs.

In the background I have been lobbying potential sponsors and donors with positives pledges to be forthcoming soon.  Thank you to everyone who has donated so far.

Have also got into DIY advertising?   Making computer generated iron on shirt transfers, which have been applied to a number of shirts for my team and me to sell the message as I walk/cycle.        Have made business cards and flyers too and constructed a media release which should be forwarded to local newspaper shortly.
