In a moment of madness over a few drinks last November Yvonne Goodwin and I decided to "do" the Snowdonia Marathon 2009 (http://www.snowdoniamarathon.com .  It seemed like a "good idea" at the time!  All of a sudden it's almost upon us - 24th October 2009.  It will be one huge challenge (as a middle-aged  "power" walker, Snowdonia, end of October, hmmm....) and I would like Katharine House Hospice to benefit from all of my huffings and puffings, blisters and stiff joints, since these minor inconveniences will be a very small price to pay if I can raise lots of money for the Hospice.     I have my own personal reasons  for choosing to raise funds for those involved with the Katharine House as many of you know.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

I know I can rely on the generosity of my friends and family so please dig deep and donate now.

Many, many thanks - it's very much appreciated.
