The CancerCare Cross Bay Half Marathon · 9 May 2009

CancerCare is a local charity dedicated to helping adults and children affected by cancer or bereavement in North Lancashire and South Cumbria. We receive no government funding, and our work is only possible thanks to grant funders and people who donate, fundraise or give a gift in their Will.

Story

After 15 weeks of training, over 200 miles of training runs, 5250 sit ups and push ups, one lost toe nail and one squished sciatic nerve, yesterday I ran the CancerCare Cross Bay Half Marathon.  My time was 2hr21min59 which, considering the various river channels we had to cross, the ridiculously strong headwind and the fact that Id never run anywhere near this far before, I dont think was too bad at all.  The even better news is that we have raised over £1,300 for CancerCare.  This is absolutely fantastic!!   

 

Thanks everyone for your support.  I couldnt have (and wouldnt have) done this without you. 

Love from Jane xx

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: CancerCare North Lancashire and South Lakeland gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
