My story
Despite pains, aches, blisters the size of eggs, being chased by dogs, wet runs, windy runs and one case of accidentially eating a huge glob of Vaseline (yes it's as daft as it sounds) I made it through all my events including 2 marathons and a Coast to Coast Challenge
And now instead of sitting back, putting my feet up and pouring myself a large glass of ale I thought I'd push it up a notch.
Less events overall, but I think you would agree, slightly more challenging, something I now fully appreciate having just run my first "training" marathon distance.
On the cards this year;
7th May (2012) - The Belfast City Marathon
23rd June (2012) - The Wall Run (65 miles in a day)
15th Sep (2012) - Coast to Coast (this time in a day!)
You can keep up to date with my training adventures over here.
I'd like to take an opportunity to thank those who have already sponsored me - your donations are very much appreciated and I know the money raised is being put to a very good cause.
I'm doing all of these events on behalf of the Orangutan Appeal UK, who are dedicated to the rehabilitation and preservation of Orangutans and their habitat.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
Thanks in advance for anything that you can spare. Keep checking back to the page for updates.
