Mega Miles Challenge Day 7

Mega Miles Challenge – Day 7


I’m thrilled to share that I’ve completed my 35-mile target in support of the Civil Service Charity!


This incredible charity provides vital support to civil servants who are facing tough times. From mental health services and bereavement support to legal advice and more, they’re always there when it matters most.


I’m so grateful to everyone who has supported me on this journey. Thanks to your kindness and generosity, I’ve not only reached but exceeded my fundraising target of £300!


It’s hard to measure the impact your donations will have—but know that they will bring real help and hope to so many lives.


From the bottom of my heart, thank you to each and every sponsor. Your support means the world—not just to me, but to all those who will benefit from your generosity.


Mega Miles Challenge Day 6

Day 6 of the challenge became a slightly uphill mission as knee and sciatica pain really started to become a problem.
But overall really feel I’m on a winning streak. 
I completed 9838 steps.
2000 steps = 1 mile.
Today I completed 4.92 miles.

Thank you everyone again for all the wonderful support and generous donations to support me in supporting the Civil Service Charity. ❤️

Mega Miles Challenge Day 5

Having missed yesterday’s walk because of a painful knee and sciatica of my lower back, I walked an extended walk today. 
The walk was slow with the aid of my walking stick.
With resilience and a strong sense of purpose and determination I finished today’s walk towards my target of 35 miles.
Today I walked 12486 steps.
2000 steps = 1 mile.
I walked 6.24 miles.
Thank you everyone for your wonderful support. ❤️

Thank you all so much. ❤️

Mega Miles Challenge Day 3

As I stepped out of the house felt a few drops of rain on my face.
But that wasn’t going to faze me . No way Jose!
It just strengthen my resolve  to complete my target for today.
I completed today : 10226 steps.
2000 steps = 1 mile.
So today I’ve completed 5.113 miles.
Thank you everyone for all your support.
It’s really appreciated! ❤️

Mega Miles Challenge Day 2

Had a brilliant afternoon walk on day 2 of my challenge. The total steps I completed today were 6234.

Greatly appreciated!

Mega Miles Challenge Day 1

Hi everyone just completed my first day’s challenge 
Excellent walk.
Feeling exhausted but exhilarated!!
Used ‘Map my ride’ app to record today’s walk.
Hoping to upload screenshot of today’s progress.

No Pain No Gain

Hi everyone,

Firstly I'd like to thank everyone for their support with their very kind and generous donations in these very difficult times.

I've been practicing with short walks locally in preparation for the Mega Miles Challenge.

Still reliant on my walking stick I'm a bit slow, but determined to completing my pledged target of walking 35 miles in one week in May.

I'm really looking forward to tomorrow 01/05/2025, to the first day of my Mega Miles Challenge!

I'm going to use an app to plot/map my daily progress and upload this to my blog.

Thank you everyone for your support.

Please support me!

I’m taking on the Mega Miles Challenge for the Charity for Civil Servants—because sometimes, life throws more at us than we can handle alone.


For over 137 years, the Charity for Civil Servants has been a lifeline for current, former, and retired civil servants facing tough times. Whether it’s mental health challenges, financial difficulties, grief, relationship issues, or disability, they offer compassionate and practical support when it’s needed most.


I’m fundraising to help ensure this vital support continues—so that future generations can rely on the same helping hand.


What moved me to take on this challenge are the strong, personal, and deeply meaningful reasons close to my heart. I’ve also been inspired by figures like King Charles, who was himself moved by the incredible courage of Dame Deborah James—affectionately known as “Bowel Babe”—whose legacy continues to drive awareness, strength, and change.


Please support me if you can. Together, we can make a real difference.
