Hi everyone!
well i did it!
Had a great night there the atmosphere was great and the rain held off too!
Only had a slight shower around 5 am for about 10-20 mins!
But i started at 11.35 pm and finished at 7.17 and 30 seconds am!
so it took me 7hrs 42mins and 30 seconds!
Am pleased with the result too!
It was great doing the walk -i didnt stop once for the loos either!
although there were queues at each stop!
I just kept going !
at about 11 miles though we came to a complete standstill almost for about 20 mins, trying to get through some tunnel/walkway and by the time we got going again it was hard and my feet started to hurt -but i walked it off eventually!
it was great too, walking round london and seeing the sights ,also people cheering us on!
at the end - terry came to wait at bayswater road and when asked the help desk which direction that was they sent me in the oppsite direction LOL
so i ended up walking about another mile back again!doh!(well staggered LOL)
Total steps on my pedometer for the night was 59,063!
I got home had a bath then slept for 8 hours !
Am really aching still though, just at the top of my legs and also my back is killing me -real painfull, think its seized up
once i sit down its painfull trying to get back up
Just hope it improves over the next few days!
I feel like an old woman getting about at the moment!
Anyhow it was a good night i enjoyed it although those last few miles were taking their toll on me and my speed kept picking up then slowed down!
And as i was leaving there were still hundreds of moonwalkers still finishing!
Anyhow thankyou to everyone that has sponsered me-it was a great event and all the money has gone to help a worthy cause in breast cancer research and care- and i was proud to be part of it!
just need to check the total -but its approx £836 i raised
also, i have uploaded the pics i took and they are on my Moonwalk page...
