I have just about a month left before I run my first ever half marathon- for a brilliant local charity. I am running for Up and Downs- a charity that supports families and children with Downs Syndrome in the local area by organising and running a range of fun family events as well as delivering Makaton training and Speech and Language sessions.
A good friend of mine is a founder member of the charity- and I know will make sure the money is well spent and makes a difference to those who really need it.
Every year Up and Downs hold a charity fundraiser ball- however- as I don't do posh frocks and socialising -lol- I figured that running was my best option of finally being able to give some money to their worthy course.
Please help by sponsoring me:
I am old, eat too much, drink too much yet am just about managing to get myself almost fit enough to run the 21km/ 13miles. I am putting all I have into training now so that I can raise a decent sum of money to help the children and families involved in Up and Downs.
Thankyou.
