Walking With Mum

Donna Blackman is raising money for Kent Multiple Sclerosis Therapy Centre

My story

I’m raising money for the Kent MS Therapy Centre by taking part in their ‘Run With Mum’ campaign, which celebrates Mothers Day and is in aid of the 140,000 people in the Uk, who, like me, have MS.
I need to do 140,000 steps (equivalent to 66miles) across the month of March.

My plan is to walk from Epple Bay (near home) to Minnis Bay, along the sea-facing prom (approx 3miles). I’ll need to try to walk it almost everyday to cover the distance.

Frankly, it’s gonna be nothing short of hell for me, since I can barely manage to walk along 1 aisle of a supermarket without leaning on a shopping trolley and gasping for a rest and a cuppa! Instead I will be leaning heavily on my walking stick and fully expect it to take me a couple of hours everyday to do it!

I will be asking Cooper (my son) to join me and to ‘Run (Walk) With Mum’ every weekend during March.

If you can spare any cash to sponsor me, I would really appreciate your support!

I will be starting my challenge tomorrow, 1st March and hope to complete 140,000 steps by 31st March. Wish us luck!

Many thanks
Donna & Cooper
Xx

We’ve done it! We’ve finished!
Over 140,000 steps done!
Thanks to everyone that sponsored us and all the good friends that walked with us!
Excuse Coopers’ sad face. I think that’s what 7yr olds do when you take photos of them!

So, did another 7,000 steps yesterday. Walked in the other direction on the Viking Coastal Trail from Westgate to St Mildred’s. Walked with the ladies & kids in the evening to the restaurant. A few glasses of rose was a good way to mark getting close to the final lap! Then celebrated Mothers Day with pancakes & flowers. 💐

We’ve done over 100,000 steps!
40,000 steps left to do!

Progress was punctuated at the weekend by Coopers’ late Birthday ‘Michael Jackson themed ‘Thriller’ of a party. Must’ve done a good few steps that day!

Cooper and I and some friends clocked up another 6,000 steps today, from Epple Bay to Minnis Bay. Been so busy this week, that I still need to add up this weeks totals!
