Putting it here because you will all see it.
MNHQ can move it later if they want.

I have only gone and signed up for this
www.teenagecancertrust.org/get-involved/as-a-fundraiser/treks-and-challenges/bupa-10000/

If you all know I will have to do it.

Bloody nora.
I only made it to week 2 of that couch to 5k challenge

Make me do it.
Shame me into training and stuff.
If the nest of vipers that is MN cant make me, nothing can.

I cant give blood this year because of bloody stupid frickin anemia (Im not now but you have to wait a year) so I thought I should do something.

I am now officially scared.

Bump again :)

Thank you!

You're welcome :)

How's the training going?

Alright. I have a long way to go but I am keeping it up with the help of my ipod.

I realised I didnt have the 13 weeks that the Ipod 10k app required so I have had to skip on a few weeks [eek]

My poor dog is beginning to hide when i get his lead out

Done!

Good luck and God speed bless MrsD!

Thank you!
Thank YOU!

You MNers are so kind.

:) No problem, Now tell us... What songs do you run too?

:o

Ummm
Is this the time to admit to Rastamouse?

Even uncooler - I have worked out how to use the ipod and my radio at the same time so I can run to Radio 4 and Radio 4 extra

Ha ha I am ruining my rep innit?

Oooh, You've just reminded me to catch up with the Archers online!

I mean...

I am nearly half way to my target. THANK YOU!

Is it about time to reprint the justgiving link?

Go on then, if you think I should

There you go!

Attagirl...

.

I less than a fiver off half way!!!!

Hurray!

I got an email today to say that its 'a little over 50 days' till the race

(leaving aside what a 'little over 50 days' means

OMG I have lots of work to do...

Thanks revolting

Hey you're welcome. and you know what, tip from a currently injured runner -if you are new at this, invest now in some sports massage/ osteopathy/ similar - will help to keep injuries at bay. Worth it for the £30 or whatever it costs, generally!

Good tip. Sound a bit grand for the likes of me

Tempting though...very tempting.
Maybe I will wait until I am doing more running than walking.
I hope your injury is better soon.

I might keep bumping this till you hit target :)

Me too
We could annoy people into donating!

Oooh can I be a chugger

Do you have your anorak and clipboard?

Go for it. Stalk the streets of Mumsnet and jump out at unwary folk. Harrass and guilt them into handing over their cash

'its for the kiddies'

I appear to have lost all my scruples in my quest for £1000.
But I am running. I never run. Its not seemly in a woman of my age.
So I think I deserve it.

I am slapping on a manic grin and perfecting my pavement blocking as we speak

I am very impressed by people who run. I think I once broke into a trot in 1993, but nothing since :) Am in awe of this running :)

Done.

PS do you ever put your dog in a little bag? If so I think I saw you the other day...
