    Weʼve raised £360 to fund outdoor equipment for Barrowhall Primary School playgrounds

    Great Sankey, United Kingdom
    Funded on Friday, 2nd June 2017

    Story

    Although the facilities at the new Barrowhall Primary School are fantastic, the outdoor areas need some development.

    On the 28th of May I will be running the Liverpool Rock and Roll Marathon and hope to raise as much money as possible to add to a grant the school has received to add equipment to the school playgrounds and also some physical equipment in the outdoor area by the Reception classrooms.

    My daughter is in Miss Fernyhough's class at Barrowhall and in September I begin training to become a Primary School teacher. I know the pressures schools are coming under in terms of funding and thought this was a great opportunity to raise some funds for the school as I face the challenge of 26.2 miles.

      So my race number arrived today 😬. Suddenly it all seems very real. Thank you to everyone that has sponsored and supported me, it means a lot. Last week was my last full blooded week of training and I also hit 700 miles run this year. The next 2 weeks are going to gradually ease down in the lead up to the marathon. Mentally the next couple of weeks are going to be tough, or so I have read, as the "maranoia" kicks in.

      Just shy of 38 miles last week on a "rest" week 👍 With just under 3 weeks to go until the marathon. Just one week left of proper training before easing off into the taper phase. Thank you everyone who has sponsored me so far - it is very much appreciated

      So another 45 Miles were ran last week so that's over 90 miles in 2 weeks. I never thought I would be able to manage that! There's now less than 4 weeks until the marathon and the nerves are starting to kick in (just a little). Still a couple of weeks of training before the tapering off starts and it all becomes very real 😬 Thanks you to everyone who has donated so far. I really do appreciate it. Please feel free to share the fundraising link on social media. I would be very grateful 👍

    I am a member of Warrington Running Club & having completed a fair few half marathons in recent years, it's time to tackle the big one.....a full marathon. I've been training since early January & have just over 500 miles in the bank so far. I am aiming for a time under 4 hours!!
