I'm stepping it up in September!

When I first thought about returning to the 10k steps a day challenge, I was just going to do it for myself as a motivator. Then, when someone at work asked if I was raising money, I thought that it would be even better to donate to a meaningful cause, so here I am!

I asked my mate Chatty to write a motivational poem to help me kick things off, so here it is....

👟 Steptember Poem 👟

I’m walking my steps, one by one,
For a challenge that’s meaningful (and a little fun!).
Each stride that I take, each step on the way,
Helps brighten the lives of people every day.

Cerebral Palsy Alliance leads with care,
With research, support, and therapy to share.
Early detection, new hope, and more,
Each donation helps open the door.

So cheer me on as my sneakers tread,
(Though my legs may ache, and I’ll crawl to bed!)
If you can spare a dollar or two,
Together we’ll make a difference true.

Step by step, I’ll walk with pride,
With your support right by my side.
