26 miles 3 peaks conquered my feet are sore and blistered my body is aching but I'm so pleased with myself for finishing. No week 9 for me this week until maybe later on depends how quickly I recover. 😁

Wow!! That’s an amazing feat (having climbed just one peak last weekend I’m in awe)- your legs will surely need a rest - I found the coming down affected me most - you deserve a little rest so that your week 9 can do you proud

Thank you so much. It's not easy but wouldn't be challenge other wise. Currently raised just over £500 for the Alzheimer's society 😊

I've been hobbling around all day. Only done 12,000 steps today. 5k race in 2 weeks time 😊

Wow! Well done Kat_Mc12 ! This is a huge accomplishment. You must be so proud, happy, relieved that it's over and tired. Were you emotional when you crossed the finish line?

Rest and TLC, take care and thanks for posting.

Tears did flow a bit when I'd taken my boots off yes. Very relieved, happy and emotional at the end. 😊

Understandably emotional. I knew you would get to the end this year. You've got real grit! Rest up Kat, week 9 can wait until your body is repaired.

Huge congratulations Kat. That is really fantastic. You raised a lot for a very worthy cause too. I think most of us know someone affected by dementia of some sort and it doesn’t get enough support and funding. You should be very proud.

Hope you heal up quickly and enjoy a well earned rest.
