Well I did it. It took 7 hours and 15 minutes to walk 26.2 miles. Everything hurt and I slept for most of the day on Sunday but I did it and so far have raised £616.20 so a huge thank you to everyone who sponsored me. Now the aches and pains have subsided and I'm just left to battle a cold and get through the last few days at work before we pack our bags and head off for 16 nights to see Seattle, Portland and New York.
But until then I've been meaning to share a Summer list, some things I want to do over the next few months. I'm leaving anything holiday related off because it would be far to easy to fill a list with Stumptown coffee, trips (yes, multiple) to Shake Shack, pizza from Delancey, and pork buns from Momofuku (though that sounds like an incredible list). No, it seems only right that this should be a list for Summer in the UK.
turn 32
sit and eat lunch outside as often as I can
make jam
visit Little Sparta
drive to a Scottish beach with a picnic
make homemade pizza because I can't remember the last time I did
bake a cake with strawberry icing
send postcards
wear sunglasses and sandals
make friendship bracelets
eat pancakes for breakfast
take lots of instant photos

congrats, again, on 26.2!
i love the list (maybe i will join for that picnic on the beach, yes?).
and the photo! now that brings back some good summer memories.
Congratulations on the walk! Both lists, the international and the domestic, sound just about perfect to me.
Well done! I think that sounds like a really good time.
Here's hoping the weather cooperates and gives you a summer. At the moment my only chance of wearing sandals is in the house!
Congratulations, don't forget your sunglasses, that is really important during summer and outdoor activities. Keep safe on your adventure.. :)
