Lydford Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 I am running the Lichfield 10k on 6th September 2009 as a personal challenge and to raise funds for Oldies Club if you feel you could sponsor me to help raise as much as possible for Oldies Club that would be fab...even just £1 would make a difference. You can find out more about my running, including how much I need your help to encourage me along... (I have never run 10k in my life!! ) and to sponsor me, by visiting my fundraising page at https://www.help.co.uk/fundraisers/KateLee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lydford Posted August 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 An unashamed bump for Oldies Club and me!!! I was out this morning doing my second 4 mile run....the last mile involved a run up a very steep hill..halfway up I felt very sick and wobbly, and it was very tempting to give up ..and (this is true!) I looked up to the top of the hill and saw Ginty an Oldies dog who had been adopted near to me (I did the home visit) being walked..and I thought 'Yes that is the reason I am doing this, so that dogs like Ginty can find their forever home'....I dug in and managed to comlpete the run. Please support me if you can xxxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
