S-no-w Time for Walking

A short entry this week for the Hardcore Four.  Unfortunately this was a week with more injury news rather than walks, but we're still early days!

Julie our star walker from last week injured her Achilles and so has not been able to complete as many walks this week.  She has however invested in some Compeed blister plasters and zinc oxide tape for those inevitable blisters! Continuing the blister prevention theme she has also organised some new socks for herself and Jo. We'll have to get those trialled and tested well prior to the event.

Jo has started her physio sessions for her ankle which she injured in the new year so we also hope to have her back in full training soon! She spent the weekend resting up on the dance floors of Brighton with some uni pals. Perhaps scouting out where we go to celebrate and burn off all that excess energy when we complete Trailwalker.

As for Gem & Gubbs, other than a spin class at the newly joined gym, there were no training walks this week, but this is not for injury reasons.  Rather a weekend away back to Gubbs' native Kent for a family birthday party. They did however use this as an opportunity to spread the word about the team's Trailwalker challenge in the hope of some future sponsorship! ;-)

...and it also snowed in Kent!  So please meet our rather irrelevant snow penguin.
