  • We Did It!

      22 March 2024

    Well we did it! We joined a few thousand other people last Sunday morning to walk/run etc the 12km from Cranmer Square in Christchurch to New Brighton. Luckily it was the perfect day for it. We initially had a target of 3 hours but that soon changed to 21/2 hours. We actually completed it in 2 hours 15 minutes which we were very pleased with. The event was highly organised with plenty of stewards cheering us on.

    I would like to thank everyone who donated to the cause. Thanks to you I raised nearly $1,700 for Canteen. Thanks also to Ellie and Rosie for joining me on the walk and to Steve for taking and fetching us and buying the much needed coffee afterwards!

    Now what to do next year.........???

  • Less Than a Week

      11 March 2024

    Well this time next week I will hopefully be putting my feet up and counting the money! City to Surf is next Sunday and I will be doing it with my two eldest granddaughters Ellie and Rosie. Oscar (the dog) is not allowed - race rules! I am really looking forward to it, although the early morning start may be a bit much! I am so grateful to all those people who have sponsored me; people have been very generous and it is truely appreciated.

    If you haven't had the opportunity to sponsor me yet please consider it; it will help and support teenage kids whose lives have been affected by cancer. Teenage years aren't the easiest these days and if you add cancer into the mix you will appreciate that those affected need all the help they can get. Thank you and much love to you all.

    Thank you so much for all your generous sponsorship! As you will see I have updated my goal to $800.00, which I didn’t think would be possible. I know it is unrealistic but please consider supporting me if you haven’t already!! Thank you again! xxx
