Sneaky Peeks for the Virtual MoonWalk London
The Walk the Walk Event Team shares the latest MoonWalk London News!
Sneaky Peek… Updated 11/5/22
Kicking off the day...
We will kick off at 6am over on the Event Page with a warm-up with the fabulous Roy Gayle and the Walk the Walk Team... whenever you set off, make sure you warm up with us first.
Start and Finish Line
No matter where you are, every challenger needs a good Start Line and even more importantly a Finish Line!
Here are a few tips on how to create yours…
No:1 Creating your start is always easier if you have something to work from… a gate… a couple of trees… 2 garden umbrellas stuck in the ground… your front door… your garage doors… and if all else fails 2 loyal friends or family positioned in the right place… as long as they return for the Finish!
No:2 The ribbon or tape to walk through is a must… this could be a piece of string… a pink ribbon of course… crochet a rope or even a chain of bras all linked together (the loyal friends may not want to part with their bras… but they might be happy to hold each end of the chain!)
No:3 Decorating your Start creates drama, so use any bunting or flags you may have… Balloons, as long as they are environmentally friendly… but if you want to keep it pink… try making your own bunting or make some streamers and flowers out of crepe paper!
No: 4 Take a photo! By the time you have your decorated bra… T-shirt… cap and raring to go smile… who needs decoration… YOU ARE ALL WE NEED!
No: 5 Don’t forget to share your Start and Finish line photos on our Event page!

Inside your pack, you will find your MoonWalking T-shirt, Cap, All-Weather Poncho, and of course ‘Your Hero’ Bra to decorate… make it as wild, wonderful and beautiful as Your Hero is!
YOU are our trail blazing MoonWalkers!
Information about the day itself, start times, support, tracking your challenge and lots more will all be revealed here on our next Virtual Sneaky Peaks… One thing we can share is that you really are our trail blazers for our big comeback MoonWalk weekend. So we hope you are as excited as we are!
