We're back on! A new date and a renewed fund-raising effort!
Thursday 24th Jul We're back! My ribs are thankfully all healed and we've got a new date for Bristol to Bath - Sunday 7th September 2025.Plans tripped up at the last minute!
Wednesday 28th MaySo with just a few days to go, I'm sorry to say that we've had to postpone our bike/walk/run event and the Cheryl Way.
I (Jess) managed to trip over a wire whilst out running, and hit the ground with quite an impressive thud. I thought I'd just done surface level injuries, with an impressive group of cuts and bruises to my hands and knees and a little bruise on my chin. But it turns out I hit my ribs and back pretty hard and I've caused myself a proper injury. Even breathing deeply, turning my body, and sleeping is a bit of a struggle at the moment, so I've had to admit defeat. Rhoda was also having some issues with plantar fasciitis so we've taken the difficult decision of postponing our plans.
We are very determined to do the Cheryl Way and will be rearranging as soon as possible, although realistically it might be July/August to give me enough healing time.
I am really gutted to have to postpone so close to the day of the event, especially when people have been so generous with their donations.
So watch this space for a new date! Thank you again for your donations and support, and my apologies for being a clumsy oaf (although HONESTLY who puts wire across a path?!!?!).
