A Decent Bra
This won't have occured to male walkers, I'm sure - however, if you're a well-endowed woman, a decent sports bra is the first purchase you need to make when kitting yourself out for Parish Walk training. Being in a post-pregnancy state can leave you with a breast size which defies the resources of every lingerie outlet in the island. If, like me, you find youself in this position, I can thoroughly recommend the on-line company, Bravissimo. They have every size - some you've never even heard of. Better still: go across to one of their shops and be properly fitted. The sports bra they found for me works well. But this is because the bit that goes around the rib cage (where you need the support) is as tightly fitted as a whale bone corset. There are three hooks to struggle with and because it's so tight, it takes 10 minutes to get into the thing. Needless to say, I have not yet managed to get changed and get out for a training walk during the lunch hour. I wonder if there are any handicaps available for those walkers with a HH size or more?
