The countdown is well and truly on! This is the nice bit of all the training - lots of pasta and a few light runs before the big day on Sunday! I don't think anyone who knows me would describe me as sporty or atheletic so I am relying on something I have in abundance - stubbornness and determination - to see me to the finish line. Pushing on through the pain and the tiredness will be a lot easier if I know I have raised a good sum of funds for Amnesty International and the protection of our human rights. Please do be generous when you sponsor me - just open up any newspaper on any day and you will know why Amnesty International is needed in this world.
