Today is about recognising important stuff to me. It’s been a tough week. It’s ended well with me reconnecting with my old friend the rowing machine. Just 10 minutes, at half the resistance I used to manage - but that’s where I am now. Small, achievable goals that boost my health and my spirit. Gradually I’ll come back stronger. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither is fitness. One stroke at a time - and be proud of every achievement along the way.

I’m finally about to start radiotherapy next week, and the Mighty Hike is 3 months away - time is going quickly! Many thanks to those who have already kindly donated; if you haven’t, and are able to support this fantastic charity, please donate via the link below. Every penny we raise will help people facing cancer and their families to get the vital support that they need. Thank you!

This is a great FREE app; every time you walk 5k steps a day it records it. If you do that 20 times per month, they plant a tree on your behalf! Note it’s linked to Apple as I’m using an Apple device, but is available on android too.

What a novel idea - allowing sport to be fun!! Really hope Norway’s approach can influence youth sport here too.

How did a small Nordic country dominate the Games? By making sport fun and not something for kids to suffer

I’m sitting waiting to go in to a workshop this morning, feeling so grateful to everyone in Support Team Becki. For those who have prayed, called, visited and thought of me these last few months, as well as the amazing clinicians and volunteers I am meeting, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. Radiotherapy will start soon, then hormone +/- targeted treatment. All of your support is so gratefully appreciated; you are ALL amazing. Thank you xx

This charity is amazing; I was told about it by a friend and colleague. Great online support, YouTube videos, website, as well as centre in Bristol if you live/go there.

Cancer wellbeing for everyone

So, a bit of a training walk today. Only another 6 miles to go 🤣
Not too bad; another 5 months to go, just keeping fingers crossed treatment doesn’t mess things up too much - no news on that front yet I’m afraid.

Keep running!

While all exercise comes with the risk of injury, there are three things runners can do to reduce this

So, 2 weeks ago today I was dreading my first general anaesthetic and what life was going to be like. This is what 12 days post op looks like for me - doing my exercises like my physio told me, and a wonderful 3 mile walk around Stowe with Chris. Very grateful to my medical and support teams - you are all amazing.

Thanks to everyone for their well wishes. As you can see my animal support crew are making sure I rest, and family and friends have been absolutely amazing - I am so grateful. Drains are out, I’m doing my exercises 😉 - prayers for continued great recovery and lymph biopsies to be clear appreciated. I’m missing seeing you all - it will be a while, but looking forward to seeing you all in 2026 xx
