Story
UPDATE: We did it!!! In the early hours of May18th, the team finished - everyone a bit achy & all VERY tired.
Tania - 13 miles in 4 hours, Laura - 13 miles in 4.5 hours, Taylor - 13 miles in 5 hours and big momma Lorna - 26.2 miles in 9 hours!!! THANKS FOR SPONSORING US!!
Yes, we want your money. For Charity. Again!
So here is the usual blurb. Together with 15,000 other men & women, myself, my daughter Taylor, her friend Tanya & ANOTHER friend Laura are planning to "Walk the Walk" which is a 26 mile walk through London, at midnight, in my bra on May 17th. In case you haven't done the calculation, 26 miles IS a marathon!!!
In 1998 I couldn't even begin to plan 10 years ahead as I had been diagnosed with breast cancer. 2008 and I am celebrating being 40 AND being 10 years clear BUT it could have so easily been different. This could be a page set up by my daughters walking in my memory - like so many men and women. Breast cancer affects us all - I don't care if you gave some money last year, I want some more and I will keep asking for more until research finds a cure. If you can afford £10 for a round of drinks, then you can give that £10 to this worthy cause, I make no apologies for preaching, I am very VERY happy to be alive to be here to do so.
2008 is a positive year for me , a year of change and a year of celebration - help me and my team make it special - give as much as you can for yourself, give for your mum, for your sister, for your aunt. Together we can find the cure.
Thanks for listening
Lorna & "Team Jones"
