UPDATE 8/5/11
Hello all
Well, what a fantastic day!
Even though the heavens opened 15 minutes before the race started and we all resembled drowned rats that did not deter us from the task ahead! The atmosphere was truly amazing!
Thankyou to everybody who has given so generously and also to the supporters who came on the day and gave us much needed encouragement along the way! Too many to name but you know who you are!
On a personal note, all the runners and supporters would like to thank Heidi and family for putting on 'after run nibbles' at the Derby Arms, it was just what we needed!!!
In total we have raised just over £5000 for a very worthwhile cause, which is brilliant!
A very emotional day but the perfect way to remember a fantastic husband, brother, uncle, son and friend to many!! I am sure Div was looking down on us willing us all on!
Thanks again & lots of love
The David Hall 10K running team!!
P.S Please take a look at the photos from the event in the photos section on this page!

Thankyou for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
We are running the Blackpool 10k in memory of David Hall, a wonderful husband, dad, son, brother, uncle, cousin and special friend to many.
In September last year David was diagnosed with a brain tumour. After chemotherapy and radiotherapy, David became very poorly and contracted Swine Flu. Devastatingly David passed away on the 11th January aged 44 years old, leaving Grace 13 and Joe 8 without their loving dad.
David ran this race only last year, something he was very proud of and the photograph on this page was taken after he had collected his medal!
We have decided to run this in Davids memory and to raise money for a very worthwhile cause in the hope this can be prevented in the future.
Any donation is very gratefully received!
I am sure David will be looking down, willing us all on!
Thankyou in advance for your support
The David Hall 10k Running Team
