London Marathon 2009 support!

Sparkle — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 13:29:54 GMT

Hi,

I am running my first marathon in April in London. I am not a fast runner at all, but have been slowly building my way into fitness since May last year. I have now lost 1 stone and 9lbs and counting! I hope to get to the end of the race! My longest run so far is about 13 1/2 miles.

If you are running the London marathon as well, please write here and we can support each other!

I am running for Get Kid's Going!

Now your turn!

Run against torture...

Redress — Wed, 18 Feb 2009 17:07:39 GMT

Run against torture. Do you have your own place in the London Marathon? Are you looking for that extra incentive to get through those miles? We are looking for runners to join REDRESS’ team. REDRESS is a human rights organisation that works to eradicate torture and obtain justice for torture survivors in the UK and worldwide. By running for REDRESS you would be helping to see justice done for survivors and ensure that perpetrators are prosecuted. There is no sponsorship minimum that we ask you to raise, every donation, whatever size, is important to us! We only have a limited number of Golden Bond places, so we really appreciate any sponsorship money raised by people with their own places. To find out more about REDRESS and the support we offer to our runners, email: events@redress.org or, call 020 7793 1777. We would love to hear from you! www.redress.org

Prostate Cancer

Howdy — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 23:30:50 GMT

Well at the grand old age of 45 and a recent granddad, I've been coerced into running the LM. As a dirty northern fell runner, I'm not used to all this hard tarmac and get bored senseless in the process, any ideas to ease the monotany?

Anyone running for any Animal Welfare charity?

soetkin — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 13:32:33 GMT

Also, to all the other runners, good luck!! I hope you have great weather and a fantastic marathon.
