Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for the Adidas Women's Challenge which took place today, Sunday 7th September 2008. 

Well I did it!!!  By the time the start whistle went I was already exhausted as my nerves were so bad that my heart felt as though I had already done 5k without going anywhere! I need not have worried though, as the crowds were incredible! Every part of the way people were cheering, whistling and stamping to keep us going and just when I thought I was ready to collapse I spied my darling husband and daughter standing on the side lines shouting me on!  In the end I managed it in 26 minutes which I didn't feel was too bad for an old bird like me!

If you are looking at this page and haven't yet sponsored me IT ISN'T TOO LATE AS THIS PAGE WILL STAY OPEN FOR ANOTHER 4 WEEKS SO GO ON DIG DEEP!!                                                  

ARD helps the smallest charities in the people caring sector.  These charities have no national profile and are run usually by a small band of volunteers, yet it is these small organisations that often make a real, tangible difference to the lives of so many at a local level.   ARD has a real and direct effect on the happiness and comfort of so many in this country.  Help me so that ARD can help them.                    
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Alexandra Rose Day 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.

So please sponsor me now! 

Many thanks for your support.
