Hi everyone!
I'm 265kms down now & still loving my journey of walking from Bluff to Cape Reinga. On the map I am just past Dunedin & on my way to Oamaru.
A huge thank you to the support from your donations. Amy, Jo G, Mum, Michael & an anonymous donation! Whoever you are thank you very much :-)
We are up to $150 now - woohoo! I'm stoked. Here is the link for anyone wanting to donate https://givealittle.co.nz/fundraiser/jowalksnz
I visited Ronald McDonald House last Thursday & joined the staff at their morning tea. I got to meet & chat with the staff & volunteers who are amazing & so lovely. They also interviewed me for a little article going in their upcoming newsletter.
Next Thursday at 9am I am taking the RMH staff out on one of my walks which I am really looking forward to. I promised them we can stop for coffee - bribes work well haha.
Their support so far has been just awesome. They really are a fabulous bunch & they have such a cool place to work helping others all day every day.
Above is a pic of me & my little walking crew Libby, Matilda & Becs. On most Wednesdays & Fridays we walk Rapaki & most Saturdays we walk around 19km together. Libby (pictured front centre with her half selfie) is pretty much our team leader! She rounds us up, is always there & never misses a walk. I love the company & the motivation of having the ladies out there with me getting it done.
I'm focusing on lots of regular short walks instead of longer ones this week. I'll be heading to Hagley Park at 7am this Saturday for about 8 - 10kms for anyone who wants to join me. Then we can grab a coffee & head to PT in the park at 9am :o)
Have an awesome Thursday & a fab weekend.
