#GoBigDave

Around the end of April 2014 I was delighted to start receiving messages with "selfie" pictures with the phrase #GoBigDave being held up on a sign in them.
 
 
This was a fantastic boost to my morale at a time when the training and dieting were beginning to feel never-ending.
 
 
As more started coming in it seemed only right to embrace the #GoBigDave selfie wholeheartedly and ask anyone who wanted to show their support for Big Dave's Little Stroll to take a #GoBigDave selfie and put a couple of quid into the fundraising pot.
 
 
This was the result...
