Fundraising for Macmillan Cancer Support
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I know we all get requests from nearest and dearest from time to time to fundraise for charity and yes here is another one of those from a more removed source than that but thanks for reading this far!
For me it's about putting a useful spin on my love of fitness and running and I'm just delighted that at 55 I am still able to chug along out in the forest or anywhere else the mood takes me but why not make something of that and benefit a really great charity at the same time is my view and therefore if you've been a guest at our little hotel here in Suffolk or whether I have had your details for yonks from perhaps my days reporting for GMTV (or even ITV West going back to earliest times!) then please excuse the direct approach and it hope it finds you well and able to click a button or two and pledge any amount you like however small as it all helps.
I have just run the Windsor River Trail Run this May (proof attached!) and managed a 2hr 05 minute half marathon so for me the goal is to to try and get under two hours which at my age would be extremely pleasing! I don't mind you attaching a condition like getting in under the time if you wish!? It puts a bit of extra pressure on which is no bad thing.
Don't feel you have to though! lol
I perhaps ought to have mentioned the hotel's famous appearance on Four in a Bed where we won our week! It has certainly been good for the hotel business wise but hey here is the chance for Macmillan to get a little reflected glory and benefit from your generosity if you like that particular show!
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
I think it's important to realise that the donating method here is safe and secure and that you can pledge with confidence!
The next race for me is in October and I will promise to put in the hours to get me round and if you can help with a little donation then that would be really great. Thanks very much for your time and hopefully your generosity!
Best for now
