Event: Rotary Club of Romsey Test - WALK THE TESTWAY, on 11 October 2009

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The hugest thanks to everyone who has donated towards my walking the Test Way on Sunday.  It was an incredibly well organised event - encouraging marshals at every turn, bottles of water en route and big smiles and congratulations at the end.  My hips were aching something rotten on Monday (the feet were fine!) but the main point of this was to raise £1,000, and with your generosity, once all the offline gifts are in and even before Gift Aid, I will have exceeded that.  Thank you, thank you, and I know that Cancer Research and the Romsey Rotary Club will add their thanks to mine.
 
And although it wasn't a race, I was the first of the women on the marathon route to cross the finishing line (in 6.5 hours, and about 10 minutes behind a chap who was power walking). Don't worry though ... this won't affect On Foot daily walk timings!
 
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.

 

About the charity

The Club is based in Romsey, Hants. Members provide service for those in need, both locally and internationally, by giving their time, and organising fund raising events.. An Annual Sponsored Walk (Walk the Testway) is held in September, to provide a platform for charitable causes to raise funds.
