We completed the Moonwalk (it is a midnight walk raising money for breast cancer . We all walked in decorated bra's, jungle theme) I aimed to do 13 miles but I did 26.2 miles in 7 hours 20 min. We are a team Celia, Elaine, Mum, Sally and I. We all walked together and it was amazing to do it. It was hard and at 17 miles I hit a big wall and was in tears, aching all over, I was with Celia and she got me thought it, then the others only a few steps ahead, stopped for shoes laces, realised I was struggling. Elaine gave me some paracitamol and with everyone pushing me on I kept going, it was so hard, but mentally I was strong and very determined. We are a team and we work well together, supporting and believing in each other each other . crossing the finishing line arm in arm is a moment I will never forget.
I am so proud of the girls and it proves with great friends you can achieve anything.
Edinburgh is a lovely place

Saturday we walked up to the castle and had a lovely lunch. As the walk did not start till 11.30 at night we had the day to potter.
We had tea in the palace on the Sunday, but with 2 hours sleep and aching all over I think it was lost on me!!
