My story

I DID IT!

Thanks so much to all those who sponsored me for Breakthrough Breast Cancer - I've upped the stakes now to see if I can beat my original target. For those who haven't sponsored me yet you have until 30.11.07.

Just to let you know- I managed the run in just over 2hrs- not bad considering I was carrying some extra weight!
I had some recording devices wired up to some cameras- and was in quite alot of discomfort. I'd done my body belt up so tight- I think I restricted the passage of air around my lungs and I had a severe stitch for most of the run! That coupled with cameras on my head digging into it.
So feel a bit battered and bruised all over, but it was worth it and hopefully i have some footage too that i can work with.

Anyway, this is Attempt number 1- there will be others. I've decided to seek out more runs around the country which will become part of the project.

Thanks again to everyone

Very best

Veronique
