This is for women and girls everywhere....

Hi family and friends, from November 25th, I’m going to be walking for a cause that is close to my heart. 

Every woman and girl around the world, deserves to feel Safe. Everywhere. Always. – at home, at the gym, even online - and that is why I’m joining UN Women Australia in the walk to end violence against women and girls.

Help me reach my fundraising goal and we can help to build a better future for women and girls around the world.

Day 4 - Trees

Thursday 28th Nov
It's pretty, but is it safe? Would I walk there at night, or only during the day, when dogs and their owners are about, and kids are crashing through the BMX track behind the trees?

The air is humid, the temperature too high for the time of day, the cicadas too loud, the sky threatening storms when the weather breaks.

It's pretty, but is it safe for you? Is it safe for women? Is it safe for everyone, always?

4 days done, 12 to go. Another 5km down!
   

Day 2 - Rowers

Tuesday 26th Nov
Up and out early enough to catch the morning rowers on Day 2, along with a less brutal sun compared to what's coming later...

Day 1 - 4.3km down, 95.7km to go!

Monday 25th Nov
Out the door just after 7:30am and it's already hot and sweaty... some steamy days to start off the challenge.
School drop off done (sorry H, we're walking today... and for the next 2 weeks!). Not sure if this will be better or worse than the heavy rain scheduled for later this week...
