Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. As a trustee of Send A Cow I know that every penny donated is used wisely and makes a massive difference to some of the poorest people on the planet. When I visited their programmes in Uganda a couple of years ago I was blown away and knew that I would be supporting their work in whatever ways I could.

Last autumn, Pieminister Pies joined the Send A Cow party and made us their corporate charity... I ate a lot of pies for Send A Cow so running the Bath Half marathon seemed like a good way to counteract the extra calories... seemed like a good idea at the time!!

The more observant will have noticed that I am not the same shape as your typical marathon runner - getting a 17 stone frame around a 13 mile course will be quite a challenge

To help me with this challenge obviously your donations would be most welcome but I'm also looking for inspiration for my running sound track... any ideas most welcome...

there are the classic Get-Through-This tracks e.g. "Eye of the Tiger"

or

the humourous Send a Cow puns e.g. "one to an udder" (by The Charlatans)

or

the inspiring African inspired music e.g. "Pepponi" (by The Piano Guys)

just make a suggestion in the comments box when you donate... or don't worry and just make a donation (thats the important bit)

Your gift will make such an impact that will last a long after the soreness from my running is long forgotten

Thank you so much

 

Chris
