March charge

Thanks heaps for the support you gave me for
March Charge........ financial, encouraging, and walking with me virtually..........
I walked 167kms total.......3 more then last year.... 

Biggest day
13kms in two walks instead of 12.5 in three walks last year....... Longest walk 9kms which I did a couple of times and a few 8kms.......

It meant I avg 5.38kms/day which is walking about an hour each day (31hrs).....
With the days closing in fast in March I lost over an hour of daylight from the start to the end of the month........it's been a challenge working full time but I absolutely loved it.......even when I dragged my butt out of bed in the dark.............so I was ready to go as soon as there was light.............
Most importantly what have you done to improve your heath, eating and fitness..........have you done your health checks for cancer..........if not go see a Drs and see what you need to do............some quick easy ones to do......get moving......

I updated my header with pics from most days of the month.........I do have a thing for sure about sunrise and sunset.............
Cancer Council has raised almost $$$$1.5million thru March Charge which I think they were under a million last year........still taking donations for a few more weeks  i need to make my own and I have a few people who said they would give me a donation that still have to come in..........
i've raised $1475 so far.....
my walking won't stop here but it will back down I just can't walk that much all the time as I don't have enough time but I will continue to walk as I have done for a long time now..............
be active love life.............you only get once chance at it..........
Catch you later...... Chookyblue.....

Well done on your walk and money raising, and sorry I am one of those who said they would, don't know where March went, so I will go and do it right now!

That is a brilliant $$ total and you made an amazing contribution. Good on you for caring enough to drag your butt out of bed on dark mornings and for encouraging the rest of us to do our bit and stay healthy. XX
