Walk 150K in October 2024

My Activity Tracking

175
kms

My target 150 kms

We did it!

We passed the 150km mark a few days early, so we'll keep going to add to our tally before the month end.

Thank you for all your sponsorship - together including gift aid we're donating over £1300 to Great Ormond Street Hospital and Charity!

Heading into the final week...

And we've received over £1000 in donations to Great Ormond Street Hospital! THANK YOU so much to everyone who has donated, your support is amazing and I so appreciate it!

We've reached 100km!

Lovely day incorporating the challenge into our plans, walking to and from the station and around Cambridge Botanic Gardens, and we covered 10km!

Day 16

More of a scramble along the river in parts than a walk or jog, and I've reached 90km and an amazing £900 in sponsorship for Great Ormond Street Charity! Thanks to everyone who has donated!

Half way!!!

Day 14 and we're 79km into the challenge, more than half way!

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated, I can't believe we've raised so much for Great Ormond Street Hospital!

Day 9...

And we're just over a third of the way through the challenge, adding another 6.65km to the tally today! 

Thank you for all your support!

Wow!

I am blown away by people's generosity! Together you've raised more than double my target, and I'm only a week in! Thank you so much!

Fundraising target reached!

THANK YOU to everyone who has donated! 

I've only walked 15km so far..! Ten times the walking still to do - can I raise ten times the funds for GOSH?!

Day 2, 5km evening walk

While I walked I tried to think of everyone at GOSH who has been a part of caring for Matilda over the past year... I got to about ten teams and probably 60+ people that I could think of, and I know that's nowhere near complete. And she was just one of many hundreds of patients that they care for so excellently. They do amazing work. What an incredible bunch, an incredible place.

'Only' 145km still to go?!

First 5km walk/jog done! Matilda not impressed that despite waiting for the weather to clear we still got caught in the rain - c'est la vie!

Walking with Matilda

My lovely, brave daughter Matilda has spent all of her first year of life under the wonderful care of Great Ormond Street's cardiology team, including being an inpatient there for six weeks or so whilst undergoing two open heart surgeries. To say thank you and give something back to this amazing place full of dedicated, caring, compassionate people who work hard every day to care for very sick children and their families, I'm going to walk (or maybe run!) 150km with Matilda this October. I will be donating to GOSH, and if you could spare anything to support my endeavour I would really appreciate it!

I’m walking 150K in October for GOSH Charity! 

I’m challenging myself to walk 150 kilometres this October to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity (GOSH Charity).

Every day brings new challenges at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, around 750 seriously ill children and young people are seen at GOSH from all over the UK for life-changing treatment and care. Every day, doctors and nurses battle the most complex illnesses, and the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs.

And with every kilometre I walk, I’ll be helping GOSH Charity give seriously ill children the chance of a better future.

This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support, so please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.
