Hi all,

Since April I have been running my little socks off for charity. I've run eight races so far ranging from 5K to a marathon and have another 6 scheduled between now and next March 2016.

The purpose is to raise money for the Multiple Sclerosis Society UK, (http://www.mssociety.org.uk/) who undertake research into that illness. I'm hoping to raise £2500.00 by that time. (Actually have my next race tomorrow - a half marathon.)

One of the things I decided to do was to have a sale of EVERYTHING Bremerial owns that is not directly related to her drinking or hunting. I'll collate my stuff and post in the appropriate section of the forum in September / October. Instead of coins, I'd appreciate a paypal donation to the charity instead via my 'JustGiving' page: https://www.justgiving.com/go4itwendy. The money goes directly to the charity, not me. Its my way of giving back, as my sister has locked in syndrome as a result of MS.

Anyway, i'll post my progress from time to time. Thanks for listening. Wish me luck for tomorrow.

Chipped in a few bucks. I would suggest using the new "Blogs" feature on the PC to keep everyone up to date on your running. Best of luck on your races.

Fallen, you are lovely to do that!! Appreciated. Just finished my last race today until September. That's when I'll be pressing more flesh than a politician as the fundraising starts in earnest!

You guys are wonderful! Ran a slow-ish half marathon yesterday. Am tired and sore and on a running high which means I can't sleep. Haha. This is my last race until September when I run a 10k, followed a week later by a half marathon, followed 2 weeks later by a marathon. Yikes. Will start blogging from that point, which is when the 8 months fundraising will begin in earnest.

Thanks for the two donations. Most unexpected and greatfully received!! Will keep you updated via the PC blog, once set up.
