March the Month 14,700 steps - Day 2

A good start to the day with some lovely light first thing. I was working a full day so the walk for the March the Month fund raiser for Prostate Cancer UK was first thing, and since it rained this evening I think that was a good call.

These last few heads had been left at the edge of a field on the walk, and were backlit by the early morning sun.

Stats for today's walk were 6.2 miles with a total climb of 1026 feet, with a total of 11,748 steps on the walk and the remainder of the 14,700 steps at home.

Not bad for someone with a dicky ticker, dodgy knees and dodgier prostate. the aim is to clock up in excess of 11,000 steps, 1 for every man who dies every year from Prostate Cancer in the UK. I was diagnosed with this cancer early in the lock down.

Prostate cancer is now the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the UK and each year more than 11,000 men die from the disease. The impact of the coronavirus crisis means that life-saving research is at risk. Men have never needed your support more to protect research into better tests and treatments to stop prostate cancer being a killer.

I know that due to Covid things are tough for many people out there (my own income is down by 50%), but if you can spare something please do support me.
