It's nearly here...

This will be my last posting before the race. I want to thank you for your support, and I hope that you will remember the happy go-lucky, beautiful, care free individual I was, rather than the pain-ridden, blister soled, sweat bucket that you may see next week. Though similar to the guy on the right, I may be running long in to the night...

I also want to thank everyone who has sponsored me so far, it's been fantastic. However, there are many people who still haven't sponsored me. If you haven't yet found the time to do it, PLEASE do so today. I would love to hit my target over this weekend before the race on Monday. Just click on the link below or to the right, fill out a couple of details; it's that simple. Or if you want to sponsor me in person, please get in touch asap.

Run strong!*

Two weeks to go...

We are now two weeks away from the Big Belfast Run.

I'm not going to lie to you, I am concerned.

Not that I will fail this challenge horribly; not that I face permanent ligament damage; not that I may not be able to walk for a week; nor even the fear of my bum and thighs being chafed raw.

No, I'm more concerned that I'm not going to reach my target sponsorship! So please sponsor me today! It's for a fantastic cause, and it's the only reason I'm persevering with this!

Some progress!

So I haven't been on for awhile, but have been running quite a bit! Doing 3.5miles regularly, and on Saturday just past, I did 8.7miles (albeit with some stops, a bottle of lucozade and handfuls of jelly babies!).

Thanks to everyone who has sponsored me so far, but with only 3 weeks until the marathon, I need more people to get on board! Check out the JustGiving link to the right.

Thanks!
