Yeah, I donated. Not a lot, but it would be fair to say that I'm in financial penury. Ho hum. All the best for the walk. 😊

Thanks,tis amazing to think two years ago I couldn't walk at all. A mile will be pushing myself hard I think but is much further than anything else I've done.

Yes, I thought it was coming up, so decided to bump. Good luck. 

if i can really walk a mile it'll be fantastic, the result of good orthotics (a leg brace that supports my ankle which otherwise rolls over) a walking stick, big stamina, hard work on recovery, great support from friends family, and Bristol After Stroke((who the walk is raising money for).

i managed to walk about half of the mile (the other half i was pushed by my lovely wife in my wheelchair) she  says i did really well.

it was some serious effort, particularly the uphill bit.i now need some serious painkillers and a lie down.

huge thanks to everyone that gave in support, and helped motivate me to keep going when it got tough. lots of friend have sent me photos to my phone, can't get the pics to here very easily.

the walk (all participants) has already raised about  £5k which is fantastic(we'll be doing it again next year), was lovely that the weather was great.
