Cat spoke to Debra Levitt a few days after 200th milestone event at Cardiff Bay.  She talks about her worries before hand, the fun of the walk itself and how it felt after the walk. The combination of almost thinking that she'd celebrated the end rather than a mid-point and the realisation of how much further she still has to go. Cat talks of how, knowing how much it has taken for her to reach this point, makes it almost more daunting to tackle the remaining 165 miles - but emphasises that she will do it.

Cat talks about what keeps her going week by week, how hers is not a structured approach and that the flexibility works well for her.

The Shine charity and Cat have spoken and are going to arrange another event for her 300th mile!

Cat looks ahead to her final week where she'll be away and what she's planning for that, touch briefly on her love of Canada (shared by Debra!)

Ever since she was evaluated at the age of 16, Cat has received the Disability Living Allowance. It enables her to keep her independence and forms part of her plans. With the government making changes to the benefits from all angles, the DLA is being replaced by the PIP. Cat talks about her initial reaction, and then trying to step back and assess the best option for her and her husband - emotionally, financially and practically.

Cat looks forward to #Cat300 and #Cat365
