Hello all!!

The walking petri dish is running! Don't you just love it when random banter turns into something real...!

Why Romania you say?! Well, a dear old pal of mine has some tough birth type connections and recently went back to document the work Hospices of Hope do. The charity dedicate their time to increasing hospice care to improve the life of terminally ill adults and children and Romania and surrounding countries. It is heart wrenching stuff and it would be great to raise money and help them carry on doing such a good job. If this doesn't warm your cockles, they have a nice tree as their logo.

Apart from about three two mile 'runs', 2 weeks of cycling to work and a few swims, i am well and truly un-trained. Oh yes. I have one month to turn myself into a fit person. Or at least to just not die running! My plan and my hope is to run the whole half killer, if my lungs fail i will be walking the rest of it. Power walk stylee (being the daughter of the fastest walker of all time>not officially by the way>).

Take a look at their website>  http://www.hospicesofhope.co.uk/

I am using JustGiving because it is safe and no money stealing goes on! Money goes direct to the charity.
