Last year I said I was going to do the Race for Life but wasn't sure if I believed what I was saying to myself as never done anything like this before and my fitness levels are the lowest they have ever been.(also my weight is at its heaviest) Until my bike accident I was at the gym about 4 times a week and haven't now done anything for about 4yrs.
Well I have decided to believe in what I said to myself and have decided I will be doing the event at Sutton Park on 12th July so if anyone would like to sponsor me I would be really grateful, it doesn't matter how much even if its 10p thats fine as I know so many people are having a hard time at the moment.
Go for it girl!!! Must admit, I should do something like that but I get shinsplints whenever I try & run!!
you should set up a JustGiving site & we can sponsor you from there ....
...have you started training for it yet??
HG thanks for the encouragement, I have started training, I am losing weight at a nice steady pace and also doing lots of walking, I wouldn't be able to run it this year but maybe next year so I am just going to walk it this time.
I am going to set up a justgiving site in the next couple of weeks and will then ask Matt if he minds if I put a link on the bm site.
I'm loosing weight as well.
I blame the kebab!
I will happily sponsor you CG. £1.99 less taxes, p&p, admin, handling and the danger money refund for opening my wallet.
Thats 10pence you've earned! lol
right here is an incentive for you CG...at the meet on the 15th March i am gonna run an auction...the proceeds of which will go to your Run for Life if you complete the full course...if not they will go to the local air ambulance instead..should be fun this LOL
will be a listin under AUCTION in a bit lol
Paul
Thanks Paul I am so choked, that is so kind of you. I will certainly complete it but won't be running it as I am awaiting MRI and xray on my knee from my bike accident so some days I have to dose up on pain killers to ease it. Hope me only walking it won't change your very kind offer.
Thanks kwak. I will hopefully do well with my fund raising considering I have never done anything needing sponsering before I am getting a bit cheeky in asking people, I have even got the salesman from DFS to agree to sponsor me as I said I would buy a sofa of him if he did. (I was going to buy it anyway but he didn't need to know) Turns out he is a biker to.
Thanks gb thanks very kind of you. I presume you mean a fiver for sponsor money and not expecting to pay me a fiver to sort me out in my tent at Matlock. lol
