My target 99000 Steps

I’m taking on the 99,000 Steps Challenge to support Together for Short Lives.

From 17 - 23 June in Children's Hospice Week, I'll be completing 99,000 steps - one for every child in the UK with a life-limiting condition.

In the UK, there are 54 children's hospices dedicated to caring for seriously ill children and their families. However, these hospices face a funding shortfall and rely heavily on voluntary donations. 

That's why I'm taking on this challenge to raise vital funds for Together for Short Lives and children's hospices, so they can continue to provide services and support for seriously ill children and families facing the unimaginable.

Day 1

Monday 17th Jun
Good afternoon all! 
 Today marks the first day of this challenge, so …. Let’s have a check in! 
 It’s nearly 2pm and so far I am way behind the target of 15,000 steps per day. Currently on 1,354 (no work today and I had a lay in!) however I am still optimistic that I can achieve the required minimum steps today. 
 So, how?! I’m planning on taking the pup out to the lake later for an evening walk round. The scene is beautiful and it’s easy to lose track of time and distance. The pup loves exploring new places, and due to an early start at work tomorrow I need a peaceful evening (and thanks to that lay in!)
 This afternoon is being spent crafting (more sitting on my butt!) but gives me an avenue to switch off from every day life and focus on creating some personalised items for a friends sisters hen party. 
 Looking forward to the rest of the week and achieving the target of 99,000 steps! 
 Until the next update, thank you for reading and the moral support!
