Walking All Over Cancer - March 2018

Wed Feb 07, 2018 8:44 am

https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/page/rob-walks-all-over-cancer-2

I'm walking 10,000 steps (min.) every single day of March to raise money for Cancer Research. I'm doing this for two main reasons. One is for my Nan, who passed away having suffered with lung cancer back in 1999. The other is for all of the other cancer sufferers out there and those who have yet to be diagnosed.

I will be collating the steps via a Fitbit device, and will post evidence of each day's steps.

Lots of people have been affected by cancer is some way, shape or form over their lifetime, and the sad fact is that some of us will be diagnosed with it in our lives so I think it is important to help fund the research that could potentially help us to extend our time on this planet, or even cure us in the future.

If you would like to contribute towards this, please click on the link above. Make a donation in memory of a loved one, or perhaps if you want to be a part of the progression towards a cure.

Thanks

Getting closer now....started to build up to doing 10,000 most days now ready for the start.

Please, donate anything you can, whether 1p, 10p, £1 or even more. Every little bit helps and will all go towards Cancer Research.

Thank you!

Having a couple of 'rest' days this week so I can build up to attack the 10,000 a day. Looking to do far more if and where possible.

15 days down, and 15 days completed with over 10,000 steps per day so far.

I have records of every day, not sure how I go about posting them on here if anyone could help?

Still need some advice on how to upload pictures here as proof of it being completed. Anyone?

Nearly there...

This site won’t host photos (we haven’t got the budget), so you’ll have to have an online album you can upload the photos to. I use photobucket, because it was great when I set up my account there ten years or more ago. Not sure what else is out there these days.

Once uploaded, you’ll see the share tags on the photo in the album, and you copy the http link one into the site, enclosing it in [img] tags (see options above text box when posting here).

Finished the Walk All Over Cancer campaign for the month of March, and hit 10,000 steps + every day without fail.

Easiest way to see the proof is via my Twitter page - hopefully the following link takes you to the page you need to see with my steps etc on - https://twitter.com/TheRobHarvey_/status/980472329988960256

If you would like to donate to the cause you can do so here - https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/page/rob-walks-all-over-cancer-2

It's surprisingly hard to do 10,000 steps per day when you're in an office based job :shock: but I've made sure it's done and I will continue to do so.

A further charity walk is being considered at the moment too.

Thanks to anyone who chooses to donate - any amount is gladly received by Cancer Research UK and appreciated by myself.
