SHORT VERSION: I love running. BUT NOT THIS FAR (asthmatic 51 yr old!). So why not keep me going though my training and the day by helping me collect money for this really worthy frontline charity.
LONGER VERSION: Lets talk running. I love running, I love running fast and you know, getting injured, being 51 and all. I have done several half marathons but, as a friend said: When I'm done I can barely run another step! And I had none planned cos, well, see the bit about getting injured!
So, lets talk the London Marathon. What happen?.
I got an email from my running club telling me I had won a place in a raffle. I checked it wasn't a carefully targeted scam. Then, I thought: I can't do this! Well, why not? You've got 3 months. And loads of folk really want to get a place. So here I am...
Let's talk About Shadwell Outdoor Activity Centre.
The place has been an inspiration to me since I first learnt to kayak. The Shadwell way, the kids, the joy and learning the place brings in a super deprived part of London. I've learnt so much in my interactions. Please help me raise money so this place can keep on inspiring and supporting outdoor activities and leadership in young people.
