Story

<p><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>40 marathons in 40 days </strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>Principally to raise money for Wooden Spoon, the children's charity of rugby.</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">If you have visited us at <a href="http://www.jogtole.co.uk/">www.jogtole.co.uk</a> you'll know the story.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">A few of us were at HoJo's on the&nbsp;St Peter Port&nbsp;waterfront on a warm August evening.&nbsp; We'd eaten well, the company was pleasant, the conversation light hearted&nbsp;... and&nbsp;then we had another little glass of Chardonnay!!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">We have a great team of helpers and supporters putting this together.&nbsp; <a href="http://jogtole.co.uk/who.aspx">http://jogtole.co.uk/who.aspx</a>&nbsp;There will be weekly updates from some from next week ... I think.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">The route is fairly awesome.&nbsp; <a href="http://jogtole.co.uk/the-route.aspx When">http://jogtole.co.uk/the-route.aspx&nbsp;</a>&nbsp; When&nbsp;we were in Scotland in November we drove the first 11 legs ... did someone say "less than 1% of the UK population in something like 25% of the UK land mass!!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">And we&nbsp;believe we have a great cause to invest in.&nbsp; <a href="http://jogtole.co.uk/charities.aspx">http://jogtole.co.uk/charities.aspx</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the 10 years Spoon has been active in Guernsey we have raised in excess of &pound;200k and that cash has been invested in bricks and mortar projects that make a difference to kids' lives.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">So join us on the journey why don't you.&nbsp;</span><span style="color: #333399;"><a href="http://jogtole.co.uk/join-us.aspx">http://jogtole.co.uk/join-us.aspx</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><span style="color: #333399;">I'd be really pleased&nbsp;to have&nbsp;your company if you felt like&nbsp;joining us on our great adventure.&nbsp; You can walk or run with us, cycle or roller blade if you prefer, come alone or in groups.&nbsp; But you must promise to arrive smiling, happy in the knowledge that, with your help we'll&nbsp;raise a little cash&nbsp;along the way.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">You will understand that&nbsp;every brass farthing raised helps Spoon stir a few smiles more on the faces of youngsters less well off than ourselves.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">Thank you for your kind support.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">As aye</span></p> <p><span style="color: #333399;">Stuart&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
