A quarter of the way there!

A quarter of the way there!

Postby North Stand Shrimp » Wed Feb 04, 2009 1:17 pm

Just wanted to update you all and hopefully keep this fresh in your minds :D

As you know I'm running the London Marathon this year in aid of Leonard Cheshire Disability and I'm hoping to raise £1600 for them.
So far the total raised in £340 - so a long way to go!

The training is going well, just upped my weekly mileage to around 40 miles and as yet no injuries (fingers firmly crossed) I've also just entered the Trimpell 20 mile run in March as a warm up to the marathon.
In fact, the Fundraising is proving to be harder than the running :?

So, if you would like to sponsor me any amount, please visit my fundraising page or PM me.

I have written to a few local businesses that I know contacts at, asking for sponsorship, but if you work at or run a business that may be able to contribute, myself and the charity would be most appreciative of your support.

Paul.

I've also been asked by a few people why I haven't brought balloons for a while. I used the last of what I had at the Bradford away game and I've decided not to get anymore and donate the money I would have spent to Leonard Cheshire.

I have £10 for you given to me by PUNKISDEAD.

How can I hand it over? Are you at the match next Tuesday? If so come up to the box and reveal yourself!
