Went out for a run in the cold and wet this morning....not pleasant! I still did what I went out to do though, which was 6.5 miles or so in about 1 hour.
Fund raising is going well, so thanks a lot to everyone who has sponsored me already. It's most appreciated! I've got a few things on eBay at the moment as well, the proceeds for which will go towards ChildLine. I've also approached one of the managers at my local, with a view of getting some kind of raffle or collection box going, and she seemed keen on the idea. She's got to check with her boss, so I'll catch up with her when I'm next in the pub to see if it's a possibility or not.
All in all, things are ticking along quite nicely so far.
Fundraising for ChildLine and NSPCC
I work for BT and as you may know, BT has been involved with supporting ChildLine for many years. Recently, NSPCC took over the running of ChildLine. Every year, BT secures a number of places for employees wishing to run the London marathon and I (stupidly?) filled out a form some time ago. I found out at the start of September that I had a provisional place and had email confirmation on the 22nd September that I was on the team.
Please go to my JustGiving site to donate. The target is a tough but achieveable one of £1800 being pledged to the charity.
Track my progress!
I have a RunSaturday account, which shows my routes (via Google Maps and Google Earth), heart rate, distances travelled, speed etc. Click on the RunSaturday link and then choose 'analyse training' to see my progress.
