<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p><strong>It is not over until the fat lady sings :)&nbsp; You can still donate to this worthwhile cause.&nbsp;</strong> I really appreciate your support especially given that despite having the determination of an international athlete, I seem to have been blessed with limited natural talent for distance running.&nbsp; I have chosen this charity because through teaching beekeeping in developing countries, Bees for Development give families living on the breadline a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">sustainable</span> source of income in order to feed their families.&nbsp; This means that your money continues to do good for years after you have donated it.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have given up alcohol since October&nbsp;and am training hard and avoiding cake.&nbsp; I know. I can hardly believe it myself.&nbsp;I am significantly less chubby.&nbsp;Despite this the race did not go as well as planned.&nbsp; It took me 7 hours 2 minutes and 42 seconds to run the course - and that was running all the way.&nbsp; It was very, very hot!!!!</p> <p>There was some unpleasant chaffing and my muscles were a bit sore.&nbsp;<strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong> Thank you to all of you for your donations and to those of you who were there to support on the day.&nbsp; I really appreciate.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p> <p>Big Thank YOU!!!</p> <p>Karin&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
