MICA Travels are a group of family and friends that are dedicated to raise awareness of Bile duct cancer and sepsis, two illnesses that claim 1000’s of lives each year and are barely known about. I lost my wife; our sons lost their mother and many others lost a dear friend. We as group will be doing a series of endurance activities to raise money for these charities as a lasting memorial to Carol, so that our sudden loss is not in vain.

While we were having dinner a tweet popped up ...

Lockdown Challenge Day 15

Well the weather outside has taken a surprising turn hasnt it!

Some of the team went out for evening walks after what was a rather mild day (14 degrees) only to find that on our evening walk the temperature plummeted down to 2 degrees! Quite a shock to the system!

Never the less we all pushed on to make sure we got the miles in for the challenge!
