Darkness into Light..

Hi All ,

Just a quick update on how the walking is going. This week I undertook the next part of my walking events with completeing Darkness into Light with Sarah , Luke and Sarah's Mum Caroline. We got up early on Saturday morning and completed the 5km walk in just under 1hr and 40min. It has to be said that Limerick was very united in doing this event and it made me so proud to be part of this city showing solidarity for such an amazing event.. With Darkness into Light completed I clocked up another 45.3km. My total distance covered is now 592km in 13 weeks. This week I managed to lose another 1lb 1/2 in weight bringing my weight loss down to 14 stone 10. I have included some links to the charities running the Darkness into Light.
