Thanks to you all, we have raised £375 for Cancer Research UK through my Reading Half Marathon participation. With all your support, i have successfully crossed the finish line.
I am back with my latest fundraising initiative. This time i signed up to do the Goring Gap Ultra Run which is a 52 kilometer ultra marathon. I know I am definitely punching much beyond my weight...but what is life without a challenge.
My longest run so far has been a 20 miler, no doubt it is still a huge challenge and i am a bit nervous to be honest but i am confident that the 300+ odd training miles i have run so far in the past few weeks will take me over the line. With that in mind, I have set myself a target of finishing the run in 6 hours.
Every time i try something that is well beyond my abilities, i make it a point to use the opportunity to give something back to the community. This time, i am raising funds for Wokingham based local charity called The Ollie Young Foundation which funds paediatric brain tumor research and support.
Every penny counts! I would be grateful if you can spare some change to support the cause.
