Our Mum is Mad!

At the beginning of May Mum decided that she needed to get fit and so she started getting up at 5:45am, whilst us sane family members stayed in bed, and going out for walks with Holly and in the evening she started to use the cross trainer in the conservatory that had been gathering dust since she became pregnant with Harry.

It is now nearly the end of July and Mum is still walking every morning, in fact on some mornings she is known to run 10k which is no mean feat as at the beginning of May she was rubbish at running., she is still going on the cross trainer & in addition to this she has also been going out for weekly walks with some of her work colleagues, all a bit strange you may think?

Well actually it isn’t as strange as you think, its just that Mum has finally gone mad and has signed up to do the 3 peaks 24 hour challenge in October (yes October 2011) and so she needs to get herself superfit.  She is doing the challenge with her work colleauges and they are raising money for Macmillan Cancer Care and Wish Upon a Star.

If you have a few pennies spare could you sponsor her & help raise money for these charities?  The sponsor page can be found by clicking on this link Mum is Mad.

Last Saturday Mum did a practice training walk up Scafell Pike, the highest mountain in England at 3,209 feet (978 metres) and on Sunday she is walking up Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales at 3,720 feet (1,130 metres) and this is just to practice too!

She might be a bit mad but we love our Mum & hope you can help her raise funds!
