I have decided to take part in the Edinburgh Marathon Festival's 5k for Oxfam partially for the lovely green tshirt and partially because I can't face doing anything longer than the 5k. 

I will be attempting to run, even though I was mocked in school for my feet going in all the wrong directions, because I'd like to help contribute in a small way to the many good things Oxfam do, namely at the moment aiding mother's groups in tsunami-hit parts of Japan, those displaced by flooding in India and Pakistan, and providing water and sanitation to Liberian refugees.

I ask of you a small donation of £3 or more to hit my target of £80 by race-day on Saturday the 22nd of May. Every bit counts towards the total and I will trutly appreciate each and every pound that comes in. I will think nice thoughts of you!
