Charity Challenge Day 1 Norland Moor

MONDAY 
WFH Day #176
Charity Challenge Day 1

Although I have not been in the office or over nine months the team still meet-up regularly by on-line means and communicate daily via a What's App group.

As we can't physically get together for the usual Christmas social events we have decided instead to raise some money for a local Charity - Kirkwood Hospice by embarking on a challenge to collectively walk, cycle, run or swim from Land's End to John O'Groats and back - a distance of 2,694 km (1,674 miles). It equates to a leisurely 75 km (46 miles) each over a 5-week period.

I started the day before dawn with a 10 km run up to and over Norland Moor and the sun was just rising as I arrived home an hour later. It was blowing a gale and raining heavily on the moor.

I went back up there again at lunchtime for a shorter 6 km walk in the sunshine.

Cooked a Jamie Oliver mushroom soup with thyme and a soda bread and melted gruyere cheese topping.
