Story

<p>&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; color: #1c1c1c; border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">So, I&rsquo;ve somehow found myself here again, after vowing that I would not be doing any more fundraising for a very long time!</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;">&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;"><span style="color: #1c1c1c; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Earlier in the year (whilst under the influence), for some very strange reason I found myself agreeing to run a half marathon. Several months past whilst I lived in denial that I had actually signed up. Fast forward to 1 July 2011 and I suddenly realised that race day is just around the corner&hellip;eek!&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; color: #1c1c1c; border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">I have to go from doing zero exercise, to being half marathon ready in 12 weeks! I think that on its own deserves you to put your hand in your pocket and cough up some dosh </span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Wingdings; mso-ascii-font-family: Verdana; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-hansi-font-family: Verdana; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; color: #1c1c1c; border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;"><span style="mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;">&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; color: #1c1c1c; border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">I raised &pound;3,635 for climbing Kilimanjaro last year (</span><a href="http://www.justgiving.com/hannahrobinson">http://www.justgiving.com/hannahrobinson</a>)<span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; color: #1c1c1c; border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">&hellip;don&rsquo;t worry I&rsquo;m not aiming for that amount this time! But I will be raising money for the same charity, to add to the fundraising I&rsquo;ve already done for them.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;">&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;"><span style="color: #1c1c1c; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Most of you know the reason behind my charity, but in case you don&rsquo;t then here is why&hellip;.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;">&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;"><span style="color: #1c1c1c; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">I&rsquo;ve decided fundraise for the Kent Air Ambulance Trust, as it&rsquo;s a charity that means something personal to me, as they attended the accident scene where I lost my Dad back in 2004. Unfortunately it was already too late for us and they were turned away, but for many others, without them many more lives could have been lost.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;">&nbsp;</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 10.5pt;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; color: #1c1c1c; border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">They are funded entirely by voluntary donations and receive no Government, National Lottery or NHS funding. It costs &pound;1.6 million each year to keep their helicopter in the sky 365 days a year and this comes from individuals, groups, businesses, companies and clubs from all across.
