My raising awareness of DLD adventure
It’s really important that more people know about DLD. One way I love to raise awareness of DLD is by going on adventures, doing challenges and then sharing these on social media.
Cycling from London-Paris (2024)
In September 2024 I set off on my 200 miles challenge to cycle from London to Paris. I'm a novice cyclist, so it was a big challenge for me and I did lots of training before.
I started in London and cycled 60 miles to the south coast. I took the ferry early on day 2. On the rest of day 2 and 3 I cycled through some beautiful French country side. On day 4 I cycled through Paris to get to the Eiffel Tower. It was spectacular!
Everyday I shared my cycling journey on social media. I also shared DLD facts along the way.
Paddle boarding the length of the Thames (2023)
In June 2023 I set off to paddle board the length of the Thames river. 130 miles in 10 days. I was very lucky as there was lots of sunshine. Plus I didn't fall in! Have a watch of a video of the challenge.
