Big Walk Little Splash

Last night Barbara, Caroline and I spent some time looking at all of our miles (mainly walking with a few swimming!) and we finally came to a decision on how best to present the information in our A5 Journal. The instructions were very precise in some ways, but left a lot to our own imagination, so with all three of us working together, we think we have come up with a formula! All we need to do now is put it into practice!
We're going to do it on the computer, and Caroline is kindly setting up the layout - we thought it best to use the mileage form provided  as the template for each page, with a line or two extra to add some interest. Otherwise it would be a book full of forms, which could be a bit dull! The extras will involve  photos, maps or any relevant similar material (so, if you have any which you can let us have digitally or actually, that would be fantastic - 'though it would need to be right now, as the journal has to be handed in to County by October 1!). We'll also have a feature on the different counties and countries in which we have walked, and, of course, a mention of our good intentions to walk together to our pub lunches earlier in the year, when rain kept on stopping play!
The plan is to print two copies, one to send off to County and the other for you all to see. The original idea was for as many members to take part as possible, and I think we have achieved this!
So, thank you all very much! You will be able to see the Journal at our next meeting.

Breaking news! It's now Tuesday evening and we've filled out our Journal as far as we can! Currently we have only 73% of members who have submitted swimming or walking miles! If just 4 more are able to let us know... It would bring us up to a massive 81% of members who have participated! Pretty impressive in anyone's book!

And.... We have walked and swum an incredible 1,500 miles since April!

Wednesday morning update! We have 2 more walkers to add to our list!
Excellent..... Only 2 to go now!
