I've no shame!
I'm running 5 km in Hyde Park, London next Sunday to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis unit at my hospital where I go for a lot of my care.
I'm especially proud to be doing this as I have been quite poorly over the past years with lung infections and so forth. Running is prescribed as a way to keep on top of my health and it seems to be working, for now. Here is the link to my Just Giving page: http://www.justgiving.com/Alison-Pratt0 I know times are hard for everyone, but just wish me luck if nothing else! Thanks |

Sponsored. Kinda poor right now so only can do £5.
Can I put a small mention here for a 10k I'm running next month for Amnesty International? http://www.justgiving.com/adamgarretty All I'm asking is £1 from those who WANT to sponsor - very modest target but it's Amnesty's 50th year and one of the first charities I fully embraced and supported. |

I'm not charging anyone, I'm raising money for the Cystic Fibrosis unit at my hospital.
I have cystic fibrosis and have been quite ill over the past couple of years as a result of it so I'm quite proud of the fact that I'm able to take part in this run. Thanks for the good wishes, everyone |

Think I suffered a sense of humour failure back there. D'oh.

Re: I've no shame!
Hey, it went really well thanks! I ran most of it, which is quite an achievement for me.
I've so far raised 133%! My clinic is so pleased with me. They are awaiting funds to undergo a big refurb and every little helps... A lot of CFers have to go in for lengthy stays for IV treatments. I've been twice so far. Hope I won't have to go again for a while, but if they manage to refurbish the place it will be a lot more pleasant to stay in for a few days. Thanks for the support! |
