Story

Hi,

In September this year I'm going for a little jog, from Whitehaven in Cumbria to Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, which is a total of 135 miles.  I'll be doing this run overa 5 day period.  The charities I've chosen are The Great North Air Ambulance, Macmillan Cancer Support and The Addisons Disease Self Help Group, all of which have helped me or my family and friends over the last few years and I just want to try and give something back to them.

Unfortunately justgiving.com can't put more than 1 charity onto a single page so I've had to set up 3 seperate pages, I don't expect anybody to donate on all 3 pages (but feel free to if you like!!).

This is how the 135 miles will be spread out over the 5 dyas:-

Day 1 I'll be running from Whitehaven to Keswick which is 31 miles,

Day 2 I'll be running from Keswick to Langwathby which is 28 miles,

Day 3 I'll be running from Langwathby to Allenheads which is 30 miles,

Day 4 I'll be running from Allenheads to Stanley which is 30 miles,

Day 5 I'll be sprinting from Stanley to the finish in Roker, Sunderland which is a mere 16 miles!

I'll be following the Sea to Sea cycle route, which wil take me through the Lake District, accross the Pennines, so there'll be no shortage of hills to run up!!.  Tahnks for taking the time out to look at my page and if you could donate something to one of these very worthwhile charities it would be greatly appreciated by myself and the charity.

Here are the address's of my other 2 pages:-

Addisons Disease Self Help Group - www.justgiving.com/letsgosteveo
