The team are going strong 💪

I don't have to… I get to. 💚

5.20am. Saturday.

Definitely not a time I wanted to be awake. Monty was still sleeping and, quite frankly, I really wanted to be too!

But I'd committed to being part of the Adtrex 5000 team, contributing my 500km to our team's 5,000km and £3,000 challenge, where every kilometre counts for mental health, specifically for Young Lives Foundation - YLF, North Kent Mind and South Kent Mind.

So… alarm on.
Swim in the lake.
Then onto the bike.

I didn't want to.

I probably didn't need to that day either.

Then came the switch:

I get to.

Standing lakeside, watching the morning mist hover above the still water, I thought:

How utterly fortunate am I that I get to do this?

Clipping into my pedals, ready for some solo kilometres around the New Forest, I thought it again.

Since finding myself at Camp 1 on Everest during the 2015 earthquake, I wake up every day thinking:

How utterly fortunate am I to get another day?

So every swim stroke, pedal turn, running step and dog walk becomes something I get to do, rather than something I have to do.

And during ADTREX 5000, every kilometre is also for those we're supporting. 💜

If you'd like to put a pound or two behind our kilometres, we'd love your support. You can enter our raffle to win some fab prizes (message Adtrex for details) or donate via our fundraising page - https://gvwhl.com/IPDAM

And my coach's response to my cycling route?

“You rode a love heart. How thoughtful!” ❤️

(I'll be back online in September after my August pause, so please don't think I'm being rude if I don't respond to comments until then!)

🌿 Fancy a trip out?

We highly recommend Knowler Farm in Stelling Minnis — a lovely place for great food, coffee, camping and events. ☕️🌿

And if you visit before the end of August, don’t forget to take part in their raffle! 🎟️

There are 2 delicious afternoon teas for two up for grabs, with tickets just £2 per square.

Even better, your support helps us raise money for Young Lives Foundation, Mind South Kent and Mind North Kent. ❤️

So why not pop along, enjoy a coffee or something to eat, and grab yourself a few raffle squares while you’re there?

Good luck! 🍰☕️🎟️
