Firewalk - Success!

I did it!  Just got back from my fire walk.  Thank you to Scott Bell (World Record Holder) and UK Fire walk for making this possible.  The evening started watching others carrying out a "glass walk" and then in to an hour's seminar on fire walking   to prepare me and the other brave souls for what was to happen.  I was strangely nervous having wanted to do this for years.  The choice of music, as I took my place at the head of the 600 degree burning pile of coals, was a song  I actually love, Firestarter by The Prodigy.  And then I was off; following the instructions perfectly, positive thoughts, brisk pace and wipe your feet at the end.  Then it was all over.  

It was hotter than I had expected. As I sit here now there is a faint sense of a glow, almost like a touch of sunburn on the soles of my feet.  But I'm glad I did it!
