Hellooooo.... I rather hate asking for donations for things like this, however people keep asking me if I was raising money for when I do a Half Marathon in London on the 3rd of April.
I wasn't planning on running for charity, running the half marathon is more of a personal challenge, plus I get TWO nights in a nice hotel in London without anyone, no kids, no husband - just me, a dressing gown and room service - f*ck half a marathon, I'd offer to run around the world for such a treat! hah.
London Landmarks Half Marathon also sounds lots of fun (if running can be called fun) as they have things like a rave tunnel, confetti and bands playing music and stuff - woo woo.
So many charities have been hard by Covid and so I have signed up 'to keeping ACTIVE in APRIL' to raise awareness and funds of the rare neurological condition Sturge Weber Syndrome. One of our friends lovely kids has this syndrome and I follow her journey with awe by how she and her family cope with the daily struggles this syndrome throws at them. Plus I figured if I chose this charity Marie would have no choice other than to buy me lots of wine to celebrate!
