My story

 
WE DID IT!

Blood sweat and tears over 950 miles, nearly 80 hours, climbing over 53,000 feet, and everyone's support has been fantastic

A BIG THANKYOU

If you want to see more detail - go to www.lendjog.freeblogit.com



Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.

The five of us; Andy, Jon, Patrick Seth and Ian are cycling from Lands End to John O'Groats in 10 days averaging 100 miles a day with a target of £1k per day a day.

We are raising money for two charities; St Giles Hospice, local to Sutton Coldfield & St Catherine's Hospice near Preston. To see more info on St Catherines Hospice please look at Pats Just Giving page www.justgiving.com/patspedalpush

This all started a few years ago when Andy and Jon planned to take on this challenge but due to work commitments it was postponed. On a regular once a year biking trip LEJOG was resurrected and the group moved from Andy & Jon to the five of us. Unfortunately two of the regular seven members aren't joining us (the common theme is they are both under 5'4" tall and have no bottle!).

So the challenge is set and we are underway.

For a bit of fun there is another web site set up - to reach it type in www.lendjog.com

Please dig deep and sponsor us online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: St Giles & St Catherines Hospices will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Thanks from all of us for your support.

Best of luck Andy. Bet you won't be able to walk straight for 3 months afterwards! Donation by Carolyne Browne 14/03/08
