Hello. I'm Georgia and I think running is gross! So I'm doing a half marathon.

I shan't run a metre, I refuse. I'm going to WALK QUICK AS I CAN to the finish line in the hope they don't start sweeping up before I get there. It will require speed, agility, and a certain lack of dignity.

It's all a bit last minute (6 days away) and, well, a little embarrassing to be the tortoise amongst the hares (though did he not come first?), but I am also going to attempt to raise a little bit of money for charity in the process.

The charity in question is Shelter UK. Shelter provides vital support to people facing homelessness and housing insecurity across the UK.

They do excellent things, and if you can spare a dollar/pound, it would be much appreciated! And encourage me to wiggle my way around East London with purpose and determination.
