Times and Star

The article in the Times & Star was published today!! Awesome!

Also! I have decided that I will sell space on my rucksack cover so, if any local businesess' would like to place an advert or logo on my pack, the spaces are 15cm X 6cm and reasonable donations will be accepted. So PLEASE if you have something to advertise or know someone who does please get in touch.

Scafell Pike on Sunday for training.

Publicity

Today saw the start of the publicity campaign for the coast to coast. I had an interview with the Times & Star newspaper, they took some pictures and the article should be published in this weeks edition. I hope to get some more media attention & gather more sponsorships for Marie Curie.

Progress Update

Hello ...

OK well it's been a while since I have given a good progress report.

Well W2K walk ... BLISTERS ... otherwise good fun! Lessons learnt: Always wear a liner sock & walking boots on tarmac are not a good combo!!

This month I hope to get the Ridgeway trail in Oxfordshire in the bag! (this should be a good training walk) Prior to this I intend to do an overnight walk in Cumbria just to test my new tent out in the wild!!

I am now able to upload images from my mobile phone!!! so I hopefully can get some images on the blog.

Still a long way to go on the sponsorship so please sponsor me (if you have not already) at www.justgiving.com/jameskirkbride
