My next few blogs take a personal turn as, over the next 10 days, I am taking the H20nly challenge to raise money for the RNLI and to remember my Mum as we head towards the first year anniversary of her passing.

The RNLI was one of my Mum’s favourite charities and when I saw that they were doing this 10 day challenge of drinking only water I thought it would be a great idea to join in.

During this time we also have the Bodyline Fitness Weekend in the Cotswolds where we will, of course, be staying very healthy whilst we exercise for 3 days so it seemed like it was written in the stars that I should take on this 10 day challenge.

Here is a short video of introduction to start my challenge and I will post a short video diary every day to keep you posted on my progress and should you wish to sponsor me you can of course!

Here is my JustGiving Page if you feel so inclined: https://www.justgiving.com/

Giving up coffee for 10 days will be my biggest challenge and that first cup of tea in the morning will be greatly missed. A cheeky beer or glass of wine of an evening I can probably just about manage, but  not without a struggle!

I am also planning to do “10 days of exercise ” as well , alongside this challenge so I started this morning with a short run and I will aim to do a little something every day for the next days as well as the water only thing.

Until tomorrow then……..
