Story

Haven't updated in weeks but hopefully tomorrow I get my silly cast off, then straight back into training. Looks like it'll be the fun run I do but I promise I'll dress up in the most suggested outfit! (Not naked, I am not doing the naked mile) lets go go go!

Finally past the 100 pound mark woohoo! Hair is booked for Friday at 9am. Eek!

Well since ill not be running the marathon, ill be shaving my hair within the next few days. 6 weeks for it to grow back. At the rate my hair grows anyway it'll be back to the same length by then so if you want to be the shaver let me know!

Just read a story about two teen girls throwing a 8 week old kitten around and knocking it out and getting away with an 85 pound fine. Insanity! So this was my official push to eat properly and get a move on with my training! Oh also got new running shoes! Yey

Bascially I just want to raise a bit of money to help this great charity as I know they helped us when we lost our pets last year they offered support and guidance. 

These poor animals don't know whats going on. People get rid of them if they are too big, get too old or make them sneeze that one time. 

So I want to help in anyway I can. Even if its with just 50 quid. That 50 quid could pay for food for an animal or even save a life from the pound. 

I know everyone got upset about cody the poor dog attacked with petrol and this still effects me so I want to give those animalsa bit of hope by helping pay for vet bills, food and shelter just to make them feel loved again. 

I'm not asking much, 1 quid or two. All I want is for others to give a bit of support. So this is why I'm running the marathon on May 6th. This will be hard for me phsically and mentally. 

I'll also be shaving my hair if I raise £200 pounds.
