Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Myself & some friends have, over a few beers decided to set ourselves a bit of a challenge this summer.
On the evenining of 24 june 2011 we're going to drive up to Bowness on Solway in Cumbria. The next morning at sunrise, approximately 3AM, we are going to set out running due east following Hadrian's Wall. We will continue for 84 miles until we reach the other end of the wall at Wallsend, in Newcastle upon Tyne. We aim to do this in 24 hours & we are hoping to be enjoying a beer & a barbecue in Newcastle in time to watch the sunrise the following morning.
We have decided to try & raise a little money whilst doing this foolhardy event, each for a certain charity which means something to us.
I have chosen The Multiple Sclerosis Society as my charity in support of a very dear friend of mine who was diagnosed a few years ago with this terrible condition. The MS has progressed fairly rapidly with Wacky (Dave) & he is now mostly bedridden & has great difficulty talking whereas just a few years ago he was the life & soul of the party.
Please pass on my details to anybody else who you think may be interested in sponsoring me or my mates.
Cheers,
Rob.
