*lucky*

I am number 118 so I asked 118 to sponsor me - I was even going to dress up as one of their 118 Experience men complete with 70's tache!) but they won't. They said they'd send me a tshirt if I did it! Well that's not going to help save many lives is it? 'Oh, I see you're drowning. Let me just throw you this tshirt.' Marvellous!

Skint until Friday. Will try to do something then (I'm off to Lanzarote on Thursday but I know where there's an interweb cafe nearby so will try to do something from there).

RNLI is one of my favourite charities (born and brought up on a small island where fishing and other seafaring activities were important. The RNLI have a crucial role to play in the North Sea), will deffo need to make the effort.

Good for you Dawn :)

Sorry I can't give more but I'm in the process of changing jobs, it does put you over the total though at least and I hope the run goes well. :)

Thanks to everyone who sponsored me.

The day didn't start out well. It's peeing down with high winds and I have a raging eye infection that saw me in A&E yesterday. But the deed was done and at 11.30 this morning I was running ankle deep in puddles and mud! My time was 34 minutes 16 seconds which surprised me as I thought I'd been a lot longer what with battling against wind blowing straight at me for a lot of it!

Thanks again everyone. Love you loads. x

Well done hun :) Rather you than me :p

Hope your eye is ok - doesn't sound good :/

Haly

I think you were very brave looking at the rain and winds outside! Well done, you should be very proud of yourself :)

Roberta

My eye isn't too clever, no! Been sent home with antibiotic ointment which means I can't see out of it! Oh the fun!
