Woohoo 1st hike since MrRfc got better.

Well, today was a very a special day in the RFC household. We have always loved walking but a few years ago we got into off road hiking. We really enjoyed getting out in the fresh air and off road, then unfortunately MrRfc got ill. His kidneys starting to play up and eventually he became unable to go for walks like we used to. One of the things we held on to over the next couple of years is that one day we would go for one of our hikes again, today we did just that, Gatton Park 8.33km with a 170m elevation (17,000 steps) and it was marvellous. We feel so lucky to get this back again and can't wait to plan more outings.

Wishing you all health and happiness

Rfc x.

Thank you, MrRfc was so chuffed I hadn't realised he thought he might never hike again.

That's fantastic news and well done :)

Thank you, we thought we had chosen a shady day for our rest one but the sun was shining bright 😀.
