One week in, 125% of our goal, and halfway through my distance goal!

Monday 10th Aug
Hey everyone, checking in Sunday night!
I can't thank everyone enough for your amazing support both monetarily and to me, personally. I feel so supported and encouraged and you all make it easier to get out there everyday and walk towards my goals, so, thank you. 
It's not been a great month in the Okanagan at all, so I am glad to have this one positive thing to hold on to.

I hit 30 km tonight, so I'm well on pace to reach 50km by the end of the month. I'm secretly kind of hoping I can pull off double the default goal and get to 100... but we'll just have to see. If the smoke clears up and I remain in good health, I just might!



We already surpassed our original goal - WOW!!

Saturday 1st Aug
Thank you everyone who has contributed so far! Because of you, I've already exceeded the original $250 goal!

When I signed up for this fundraiser, I fretted over how much to set the goal. I wanted to believe I could raise more than $100, but I've never really asked for donations for anything before and didn't want to set myself up for failure in case no one felt strongly enough to contribute. Boy, was I wrong! You've all been so incredibly generous and supportive and it's only just begun.

So, I've raised my goal to $500. Double the original. Heck, if I can go further, I will. When it comes to medical research, every dollar counts and benefits not just society as a whole, but could help you, your friends, your family, someday in the future. As sappy as it may sound, I'm so proud of all of you for contributing to a worthy cause and thank you SO much for believing in me and backing me.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got some walking to do!

Support me this August!

Thursday 30th Jul
Over the course of July I've taken up walking for fitness, as I keep being reminded that I'm getting older year by year and my risk of developing health complications increases. Well, there's something I can still do about that! I've got a functioning heart, 2 legs, and the ability to walk freely. And I've been unstoppable the past 3 weeks! 

I wanted to be a part of something, to add purpose to my walks, when I came across the Walk for Heart event with the Heart and Stroke Foundation. I'm sure we all know someone by now who's had a scare with their heart, and I for one am glad at how far medical research has come that we can actually do something to help. 

This is only the start of my own fitness endeavors, but why not make it count even more? Please donate to my fundraiser this August. Every single dollar helps, it doesn't have to be much! And even if you can't donate, sharing my page to friends and family gets the word out and more eyes on it which I greatly appreciate! 

Thanks all and stayed tuned for progress updates 💪😊
