It's taken me all week to get around to doing this but I wanted to share my achievement. It's been so long since I have been able to do some reasonably good walking other than on the flat so I am feeling rather proud of myself.
For the first time in many years I am starting to feel more like a human being than a zombie, which is nice and having Missy has encouraged me to go out and get some exercise. On Sunday Hubby and I decided to go for a walk and for many years I have wanted to get up to the top of Brent Knoll Hill (which was a hill fort) to check out the views. Anyway I decided to give it a go. We parked up halfway up and set off at that point it gets quite steep.
Well to cut a long story short I made it WOOHOO:jump::micbounce:. I know it isn't Snowdon or some other high peak but as I haven't done something like this for an age I was chuffed. I was grinning like a Cheshire cat for the rest of the day. My legs were a little wobbly when I got to the top but it didn't take too long for them to settle down. Next time I will do it from the middle of the village to the top and use it as a fund raising exercise! Here's Missy and me at the top as you can see the view is amazing!
