Practice Walk Tips

By now most walkers have established correct footwear, sun protection and clothing and are reminded that they will need the following items with them on the big day - so it's a good idea to practice carrying these things on their training walks:

  • Backpack

  • 1-2 litres of water (some walks may not allow for refilling)

  • Hat

  • Sunscreen

  • Sunglasses

  • Sturdy, comfortable walking shoes

  • Good socks

  • Snacks to refuel

  • Rain jacket/umbrella in case of bad weather (we will walk if it rains)

Walkers are reminded to please create their sponsorship proflie our Good Friday Appeal iCan Challenge Page and start raising money. REGISTER HERE!

  • Donations can be big or small and all donations over $2 are tax deductible
