In the last 24 hrs

To those of you who are going to do the E2E challenge this year, you will realise that it is not just a case of getting on your bike or putting on your walking boots, and going from one end of the UK to the other, it takes organising, and my attempt is no exception to that statement.

This morning, while my personal care was been given by Eileen, it takes 3 hours from waking to me getting into my Balder Power Chair. It is not as hard as it seems, some of the time I am waiting for the nurse to come and for nature to take its course for me to go on the loo, that sort of thing, I was thinking what have I done towards the challenge, it did not seem as if I had done much, well I had.

1. Made enquires about the insurance
2. Been to Newcastle to buy my tee-shirts to wear giving talks in
3. Bought 2 safety vests for the cyclists
4. Spent time with Eileen looking at camp sites along the route
5. Sent an email to Max & Sheila booking one camp site
6. Answered & Wrote emails to various people
7. Worked on my Power Point Presentation.
8. Booked my membership to the E2E Club, thought it better to be in the Association & E2E club
9. .I am now catching up with my blog
10. This afternoon it is out there cold selling the challenge to various businesses. This is not what I like doing.
11. Finally in this 24 hrs I will do more work n the Power Point Presentation.
12. Nearly forgot, Eillen folded up over 100 leaflets about the E2E for me to give out. Thanks Eillen.

So in all, what I thought was an E2E free day was infact, rather full one!
