Cerebral Palsy Sport- Worksop Half Marathon & Fun Run · 26 October 2008 ·
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page
Well the race is run and what a day it was. Fantastic weather and a beautiful Autumn scenic run throughClumberPark. I did really well and came in at 1:43:53.
It was somewhat disconcerting though when a bloke in a white wedding dress complete with veil came sprinting past just after the 4 mile marker!
I’d like to deeply thank everyone who has contributed so far – I’m overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity you have shown and feel privileged to pass on your financial support for such a worthy cause.
For those still considering contributing there is still plenty of time to do so, the minimum donation is only £2 and in ticking the Gift Aid box this grows to £2.56; all donations will be gratefully received.
The very best regards and best wishes to you all
Carl

I've completed a number of fun runs and 10k's over the last couple of years but never run a half marathon. So this is a first for this distance and also a first from a fund raising point of view.
My personal challenge is to run the distance in under 2 hours and 15 minutes and as it's in October what better charity to support than the Breast Cancer Campaign.

20 Oct - Now less than a week to go - ran 9 miles on Saturday and i'm still suffering - I could hardly walk yesterday.

16 Oct 2008 - It's now getting close to race day. The training is going well; now running 4 miles on a Tuesday and Thursday with a longer run on the Saturday. you wouldn't believe where I ache and chafe.

I really appreciate all the help you can give - even a small donation is very welcome.
Thanks and best regards to you all.
