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 Blush

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.

Done, sod the scruples it's all about the money Grin

Dustinthewind · 04/04/2012 19:33

That's my Easter money donated, I'm sure it's a better choice that an extra large egg. It really is. Oh yes. Smile

Even if you walk it, or get one of your strapping sons to push you round in a wheelbarrow, it is a joyful and positive way to remember such a lovely girl.

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 04/04/2012 19:37

WE DID IT!!!!!!!

OVER £500.

If I was the type to cry I would be sobbing right now.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OOOOH! Thank you for putting your link up, I was waiting for that. I am so excited that you reached your total. Am now about to donate. Really wishing you a super run. I agree, it is a wonderful tribute to your DD.

Dustinthewind · 04/04/2012 19:40

Weeks to go yet, lots of people to intimidate encourage to contribute.
Catgirl can be a chugger, I'll bump if you like. It's not like I do anything else but MN really.

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 04/04/2012 19:43

You could tell people you are a fundraiser now dust, quite legitimately Grin

Yes, it was outside nursery I saw you. It explains why your poor dog gets so tired when you take him for runs, he's only got little legs! He's very cute.

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 04/04/2012 21:13

Thank you.
He has been shaved now so looks a bit tatty. But he is at least cooler.
Do say hello next time. I wont stalk you Grin

OP posts:
Woodlands · 04/04/2012 21:26

I will indeed say hello next time (am not stalking you, honest...)

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 04/04/2012 21:45

Does your DC go to the nursery? My 2 year old is starting after easter. 4 year old is there already.

You dont have to let on if you would rather not.

I am always suprised when I find another MNer in our area. Grin

No, he goes to HH nursery (still waiting for a place at that one, more than 2 years after getting on the waiting list at 16 weeks pg... hoping to transfer him in September when he goes up to the 2-5 room).

OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 04/04/2012 22:13

HH is a good one too. I do like LP though. I hope he gets in.

OP posts:
OhDoAdmitMrsDeVere · 04/04/2012 22:14

I mean I hope your DS gets in.

I live inbetween both by LP is better for my v.complicated school/work run.
Fingers crossed for you.

OP posts:
Woodlands · 05/04/2012 08:48

I am v happy with the baby room at HH but not so keen on the 2-5 room - plus we live right by LP so it's a PITA to get him to HH.

Dustinthewind · 05/04/2012 10:21

Bump.

Eat one less Easter treat and sponsor MrsDV instead.

Hello!
I am poorly Sad

I need good health vibes NOW. I think its just a stupid holiday virus.
I really want to get out running. I feel so inspired by everyone being so bloody brilliant and giving me money.
Most of the donors have never met me.

I got quite ovewhelmed last night (or maybe that was the start of the virus).

Thanks for bumping and thank you everyone who has dontated or wanted to donated. I know its not possible for everyone.

Just so people arent put off sponsering - I feel better now than I did this morning Smile

Well, there's always the wheelbarrow option and a strapping teenager to push you.
Your lads would work as a relay team.
