Can you believe it's been 3 months since we completed our walk from Lands End to John OGroats!
We definately can't and still find it difficult to compute that we walked that far. For sure it would have been alot harder without taking our virtual team of family and friends with us and our support crews and walking buddies.

Last week we had the privilege of visiting Diabetes UK in London and meeting the lovely Community Fundraising Team. They had sourced Ecclefechan Tart which went down a treat. The 'big cheque' was presented for £6384.00. With gift aid of £942.76 the grand total is £7326.76 !! We remain totally overwhelmed.

What next?
I am keen to link the videos we took and our blog into YouTube videos. As part of our memories and they may also help others with and without Diabetes to undertake similar walks.

Thank you all again for supporting Step by Step LEJOG and helping to raise so much money and awareness.
