On June 27th I will attempt to play 10 rounds of golf to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Carrying my clubs and walking each hole, I will complete 180 holes, walk 52 miles and climb almost 5000 feet, in order to achieve 10 rounds in 1 day.

£200 Donation!
Great start to the day getting an email saying someone kindly donated £200. Only 4% of the way to the target, but it is really encouraging to feel the support of people.
Starting walking to and from work each day (little over 4 miles). The walk to work is uphill the whole way and into a strong wind. Hopefully this is preparing me somewhat for June 27th. I have been weighting my backpack to match the weight of my golf bag to try and get used to carrying that weight while I am walking.
Also putting the plans in motion for a fundraising dinner sometime in May. Think it would be good to gather everyone that is supporting the challenge and thank them personally and host a night to tell them more about the Make A Wish Foundation and have a little fun at the same time. Stay tuned for more updates.
As always, thanks to everyone for the support and please keep encouraging people to donate. www.justgiving.com/onedaytenrounds
