Story
I ran the Jane Tomlinson's Run For All- York 10k today (July 31st) in 56 mins 16 seconds. I had a great time and all the training made it a good experience. You can see details of my run here: http://go.nike.com/tch9mg and pictures from during and after on this page.
I really appreciate the support from everyone who sponsored me, and it's not too late to do so now if you haven't yet!
Thanks again,
Joe

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
I am running Jane Tomlinson's Run For All- York 10k on 31 July 2011 to raise money for the Alzheimer's Society.
I have recently taken up running as a hobby and decided that taking part in this run would be a great way to continue my training whilst contributing to a fantastic cause.
Alzheimer's is a disease which has effected my family in recent years so the Alzheimer's Society was a clear choice. With around 465,000 suffers of Alzheimer's and Dementia in the UK today, a figure which continues to rise, the Alzheimer's Society is an increasingly important charity. Your donations will help both sufferers of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias and their families and carers as well as with researching a cure for Alzheimer's disease.
Thanks for your support
Joe
