With only SIX DAYS to go before this crowdfunding closes, we have raised £250 online and £375 offline (a total of £625 so far). I will be running all the way through this time and looking forward to completing my 2016 Challenge of 1000 miles in this calendar year. (Details to follow, but I can tell you that I passed the 500 mile mark this morning!!) In the meantime, please continue to give generously. You can donate online via the link or by cheque (payable to 'Friends of Little Heath') or cash via the school, providing your details.

I did it! I finished the Hitchin Hard Half Marathon, one of the hilliest races in the country, in 1 hour, 48 minutes and 34 seconds, placing 108 out of 247 finishers. It was hard work but the weather was perfect and the task made easier by the company of other, like-minded runners enjoying the course. Please don't forget that you can still donate via this page for another 13 days. So, give generously!

Tomorrow is the big day. The Hitchin Hard Half Marathon is here! Let's hope all my hours and kms of training pay off and that the weather treats us kindly. Please donate and continue to support the Friends of Little Heath in their work, raising funds and organising events for the benefit of the young people of our wonderful school. It's a great cause and we need every pound and every penny you can give.
