Cindy Schouteeten – The Long Walk 2020, Faro de Sardina – Faro de Maspalomas, over the highest mountain… #WeCrossMountains
I’m Cindy, 46 years of age, living on the Island of Gran Canaria for about 12 years now.
// Hoi, ik ben Cindy, 46, en nu 12jaar op het eiland Gran Canaria.
I work in the hotel sector business, get on people nerves sometimes, make them laugh, make them cry, that’s what we all do 😁.
// Ik werk in de hotelsector, heel moeilijke tijden nu. Soms werk ik mensen op de zenuwen, maak ze aan het lachen en doe ze soms ook laten huilen… Maar dat is het leven, dat gebeurt iedereen 😁…
I really wanna join this walk, for myself, coz i need to challenge myself. I have a big mouth but quite insecure about myself.
// De reden dat ik wil meedoen aan deze Long Walk, is omdat ik een uitdaging nodig heb voor mezelf. Velen zeggen dat ik een grote mond heb maar eigenlijk ben ik nogal onzeker van mezelf.
People say I’m a strong person so i need to prove that to myself. And I know i can…
// Ik schijn een sterk persoon te zijn dus dat is iets dat ik zelf moet bewijzen nu tov mezelf…
And if course I want to raise as much money as possible as i do have a few close friends that are suffering through cancer so i want them to show my strength in the same way that they have.
// De reden ook om mee te doen is om zoveel mogelijk donaties te krijgen daar ik ook een paar goeie vrienden heb die met deze ziekte te maken hebben. Ik wil ook met deze Long Walk aantonen dat ik niet zal opgeven tot de finish zoals hun de strijd tegen kanker ook niet opgeven
The will to survive… and overcome.
// met de wil om te overwinnen…

Cat Vella – The Long Walk 2020, Faro de Sardina – Faro de Maspalomas, over the highest mountain… #WeCrossMountains
I aspire to inspire.
I am 41, lived on the island for a year after frequenting to the island for holidays and fell in love with the island, people and the way of life. I have a lovely 10 year old nephew who means the world to me and a sister and brother. All in the u.k.
When I came to the island i was lost, had to build my life again which was scary, but step by step I have been doing it learning about me along the way and who I am and who I want to be. I started learning more about mindset, yoga, opportunity, life and what it all does mean to me. Then COVID19 happened and I too like the rest of the world stopped. Felt stuck again that’s when I realised I wasn’t stuck I just had to think of other ways of achieving what I wanted.
I invested in my health, mindset and nutrition in myself and the JP business. Took a leap of faith like I did when I first came out here, in doing this I found me. Doing this I had to get out of my comfort zone which as you all know is the most scary thing in the world, I needed to do lives and video blogs, in which I hadn’t even taken a picture of me really before let alone doing lives, what I didn’t realise is how much I’d be helping so many other people out there, not just with their health but with confidence, depression and so much more.
That’s why I have chosen to do this challenge cos it’s about getting out of your comfort zone, experiencing life helping others no matter what life throws at you, and out of the things in life that are the hardest to accomplish are the most rewarding.
So help me help others.🌞🌞🌞

Please support Steve´s epic efforts to keep us alive for all three days of The Long Walk!
Mister Steve Cashley is an active member of the English speaking community on the south of Gran Canaria. A IT business man and tech guru he supplies and fixes a range of types of connectivity for customers across the island, focused particularly on TV and Internet.
Steve spends much of what spare time he has also supporting various other organisations and community groups, not just financially but by always lending a hand when able and assisting in the transport of donations including furniture and other large items in support of The Food Project and various animal rescue organisations.
Since the very first long walk Steve has been an active supporter of our activities, and for the last 7 years has always walked with us on the last day for the final 20km or so of The Long Walk. This year once again he has agreed to drive our support vehicle for all three days, and so will be sent off into the mountains with a van full of luggage and water and medical supplies to become our vital link between various waypoints keeping us safe and hydrated, and acting as first responder should any of us run into difficulties.
He will be with us for the last leg from Parque Sur Maspalomas where we hope to find a few more supporters to walk the last sunset stretch to Playa del Inglés with us…
“This year, once again, I have been asked to drive the support vehicle over the three days being in attendance in case of accident or injury and meeting with the walkers to supply food and water en route.
I will also be ferrying their belongings to the two overnight stay locations. Thus, it seems that I will not be able to walk on day 3 as I have in previous years. However, if anyone wants to sponsor/ donate towards the excellent causes that we fund-raise for Canarian Breast Cancer and Gynaecological Cancer Association, the ACCMyG.org and for the Mogán Neighbours Food Bank project, Nabojelpen, which directly assists local families in need.
I have lost both parents and far too many friends and family members to cancer, so I am happy to what I can to help. Please donate “

Pretty passionate about The Long Walk. Saved my life more than once, introduced me to some of the most inspirational, excellent people and ideas I am ever likely to encounter.
A wide range of extraordinary individuals and institutions work to make sure this happens every year.

It’s almost that time of year again, when THE PUB joins forces with the wonderful people at The Canary News and helps raise money for the ACCM for the fight against Breast Cancer and also Proyecto Vecinal de Alimentos, The Food Project based in Arguineguin.
This will be our 3rd consecutive year helping these great causes and we are absolutely delighted to be part of it.
This year we will be focusing all our efforts on Friday 25th September and our idea is to, whilst fully respecting ALL current Covid guidelines, welcome everyone for a coffee and cake, or indeed something savoury or a little stronger, with all proceeds going towards the cause.
We have a raffle with many amazing prizes and tickets are on sale now.
We know this year has been particularly hard for everyone, so any contribution, however small, really will make a difference, if you can come along and make a donation on Friday 25th September please do, if not you can simply make a donation on this page.
PLEASE BE ASSURED THAT ALL CURRENT COVID GUIDELINES WILL BE OBSERVED AT ALL TIMES
In particular, individual groups of no more than 10 people to a table are welcome
The venue must remain at less than 75% capacity
Masks should be worn when moving around the venue
Will you walk the walk? Where ever you do it, send us your videos and pics of you walking in PINK!
Celebrating Women, Fighters & Survivors, & Families in Need
The Pub, fase IV, behind Shopping Centre Puerto Rico will be open on Friday September 25 to support the first day of The Long Walk and celebrate. PuertoRicoWalk is to be postponed until we can all gather together again, but you can still pledge your support and still buy a t-shirt, or make a direct donation here.
Will you walk the walk? Even if we can’t all walk together, we can all walk, where ever we are and Celebrate Women, Fighters, Survivors & Families in Need
The Pub and her patrons, raise funds every year in the run up to International Breast Cancer Awareness Month (October), with every penny raised this year going to benefit Women, Fighters, Survivors & Families with donations to both the ACCM Canarian Breast Cancer Association and the Mogán Neighbours Food Project (Nabojhelpen) who support the most vulnerable in our local community.

The amazing Mari Hartell was a student of The British School on Gran Canaria born and raised by her Finnish parents here on the island, she is a truly international character. Having become a teacher of languages and primary subjects, she also ran her own restaurant business and events company, and has a broad range of life experience, sassy and filled with fun.
A busy and caring mother, Mari has a hectic lifestyle but works as a rescue diver and a teacher, training in safety techniques at the Offshore OPITO certified training establishment “Grupo Stier” which also assists the wider offshore community in many other ways…… she has two beautiful daughters to whom she is devoted. She is also an avid animal lover with seemingly boundless levels of energy.
The Long Walkers stayed at her family finca in the hills above Maspalomas for two years running before she decided she was going to personally join the effort and walk coast to coast over her island home to raise money and awareness for the local Breast Cancer association and The Food Project and other local causes.
This will be her fourth solidarity walk over the island, aiming to prove to her two daughters that there are no limits in life other than the ones you set yourself. She is epic in every way and a total true hero.
When asked about her motivations Mari says “I wanted to challenge myself while at the same time really doing something to help others.”

Lesley Walport – The Long Walk 2020, Faro de Sardina del Norte – Faro de Maspalomas, over the highest mountain… #WeCrossMountains
Lesley Walport made Gran Canaria her home, a veteran of the tourism industry she has always made herself available to help support The Long Walk, and has done so for several years, since the earliest walks. She is a lioness, though might try to tell you that her “dead leg” might keep her back, don’t believe it for one second, all we have ever seen from this Mighty Girl is grit, determination, a focus on overcoming every challenge and indeed the ability to not just do anything she sets her mind to, but to tenaciously master it through practice and a refusal to give up. When Lesley decides to cross a mountain, that mountain gets crossed.
We are very proud to welcome Lesley for her third epic walk, and we are looking forward to seeing how her bonny scottish humour and glib wit fare on this most epic of challenges. She sometimes says “I can´t” but usually means “Nobody would believe it, but I totally can do this”
“
Hi All – BEGGING ALERT!
I`m participating in the Long Walk as I believe everyone should be more aware of Cancer, and of the ways we all can help and support those who have been diagnosed.
I have lost many close friends and relatives to it.
This three day walk across the island I love, over it’s highest peak, is something, very small, that I can do to help. It perfectly symbolises the long struggle that sufferers have endured. It is a walk in the park by no means – I know first hand that this walk will be, long and arduous as well as both physically and mentally challenging.
I suppose I started training for this a number of years ago when I volunteered to be a support vehicle driver, then started joining the rep’s walk on the last day of the event. Every year around one hundred tour reps, many of them colleagues and ex colleagues have joined the last 20km or so to the finish of this epic journey. This year, of course, will be a little different.
I’ve been training 3 times a week, and doing about 12 km a day, joining in the training walks with veteran Long Walkers, Sanna Nevalainen, Eddie Timon and Paul Gilliam, and plan once more to attempt the entire 3 day walk, over a mountain, travelling 80km on foot (you should probably donate, just for me putting up with those grumpy buggers!)
I’m walking for many but in particular Sarah Jane James, Gail Needham, Amanda McInnes, my uncle and aunt Lila and Ivor Saville and my father Abel Walport
Every penny or cent we raise will be spent to support The Long Walk fund, which is donated every year to local Breast Cancer Association ACCMyG.org who support Women and Families faced with probably the greatest challenge anyone can face, after a cáncer diagnoses, and to our local Mogán Neighbours Food Project (Nabhjelpen)
I hope you will support my effort, it’s going to be pretty painful, but I plan to succeed in crossing the island to show that no matter how big the challenge, the only way to get over it or through it is to put one foot in front of another and start moving.
Thank you”

Sanna Nevalainen works hardest to support The Long Walk, and has done since it began in 2012, she is now Secretary of the Association which she helped create.
A great choice not only for her good looks and tenacious manner, Sanna is also one of the original founding members of The Long Walk, having been one of the first to go the distance, on the very first walk from Puerto Rico to Roque Nublo back in 2012.
Since then she has worked tirelessly for the event, helping to ensure that it is properly organised and supported, either by herself walking or by driving support cars, looking after bookings, or simply ensuring that the more gung-ho among us do not starve!

The Champions – The Long Walk 2020, Faro de Sardina – Faro de Maspalomas, over the highest mountain… #WeCrossMountains
The Champions want to raise money for local causes on Gran Canaria. They want to raise as much as possible by walking all three days coast-to-coast across the island. Epic! Their target is 1000€, can you help them get there?
Please support The Champions epic adventure through the most beautiful sub-tropical wilderness in the world. They are walking 3-days, coast-to-coast across the highest point on Gran Canaria, to show the world that no matter what 2020 has to throw at us, this island sticks together and keeps on going, sticking our best foot forward, to cross mountains. #WeCrossMountains
Come cheer them on, on the last day, from Parque Sur Maspalomas, arriving after 5pm, and walk the last leg from Holiday World at 6pm to Faro de Maspalomas at 7pm and as the sun sets, join The Big Picture on the pier in front of the lighthouse.
The Champions are an outstanding performance duo that have become one of the most beloved acts to play the venues of the south of Gran Canaria.
Occasionally accompanied by their two bright, young, beautiful boys, they embody a soulful mix of Rock’n’Roll, swing time and crooner classics, with an eclectic cherry pie and bubble gum aesthetic, and send love out into the world dressed in sharp suits, angled trilbys, open shirt and undone black tie matched to stylish hairdos, tea-length, pencil and wiggle and the smooth rockabilly sounds of the 50s and 60s
These year, Kern and Simon Champion have decided to join The Long Walk to show the world that despite all the troubles 2020 has brought to being performers working within our beleaguered Gran Canaria travel industry, they aren’t going to let anything stop them shake, rattle and rolling their way across a mountain to raise money and awareness for great causes.

The Long Walk 2020: Faro de Sardina – Faro de Maspalomas, over the highest mountain… #WeCrossMountains
2020 has been a tough year, huh?
You can bet, there are plenty of people who have had it much tougher and so we need your help.
Even just a few Euros can make all the difference for a family-in-poverty trying to put food on the table. Any amount you can contribute will help our local breast cancer association provide assistance to women on the island dealing with life threatening illness and trying to keep their family together. We want to smash our target and raise more than 5000€ for Women & Families, Fighters & Survivors on the island of Gran Canaria
This is our 9th year walking coast to coast over the highest point on Gran Canaria to raise funds and awareness for the most worthy causes. We will travel from the northernmost lighthouse, Sardina del Norte, to the southernmost, Faro de Maspalomas.
10 adventurers. 3 days. 80km. 1 island.
Even if you really cannot afford to sponsor, you can still contribute. Please Share this page with as many people as you can
