{Lifestyle} Avon Breast Cancer Awareness Walk

Hi guys! Happy Wednesday. How has your week been ??

Over the weekend it was the annual Avon Breast Cancer Awareness Walk - this Year they were celebrating the 15th year of the walk - but because of Covid - this is the first year that the walk happened virtually - so that meant we could join in the fun . Usually, this event takes place yearly in Johannesburg - so it allowed so many more people to join in on the fun this year. Everyone could do it out and about in their own neighbourhood and support this cause. I do hope they will continue to offer a virtual offer next year too - as everyone all over SA could take part. Every one of the participants got a T-shirt to wear on the day as well as a gorgeous buff, a goodie bag and some fun products to use on the day. Some of the fun goodies in the goodie bag were sunscreen, hand sanitizer, protein bar and shake to use on the day.

Alex and I opted for the 4km walk (there was an 8km option too ) and we had loads of fun wearing our T-shirts around and supporting this cause out and about in the neighbourhood. We do daily walks - so this was just a little more than our normal morning walk but it was for such an amazing cause. We took tons of photos, set out early (as Johannesburg was still in the middle of a Heatwave ) and had a blast doing our 4km walk. The app they released tracked our progress - and had great live streamings of DJ's and motivational speakers throughout the day to keep you motivated. I liked that the app made sure to remember safety first and telling someone the route you are planning to walk. At the end of the day, you still have to be safe especially in South Africa.

Here are some more photos of the day -
