Running for Cancer Research/Bobby Moore Fund

[LilDT]

I'm Sydenham resident fundraising for Cancer Research UK/The Bobby Moore Fund by running a total distance of (approximately) 1.5 marathons April - October 2011. The races vary in distance from 5k to 1/2 marathon. 7 races in total. (Lots of training miles in between.)

Full details can be found on my JustGiving pages:

The cause is close to my heart as is the case for many out there. I'm hoping I can help these charities continue their great work and hope you can support.

I started my morning training sessions today. Was up at 6.30 am to run 5K round the streets of Sydenham before work. Only been training for about a month but my first race is only a couple of weeks away - 10th April, 10k Newham Classic.

1 week to go until my first race for the Bobby Moore Fund - Newham Classic 10k, 10th April. Training is going ok and I have started a running blog on tumblr

Thanks for the support so far. Please keep it coming though. Any donation (small or large) is truly appreciated.

Thanks

My first race is this sunday (Newham 10K) and I could do with another week of training or so but ho hum.

Ran the Newham 10K today. Chip time 1:00:10 (so close to sub-60 today!!). Got to meet Tessa Sanderson, Chris Tomlinson and Julian Golding. So much fun - diverse runners and everyone smiling. I'd recommend people sign up for this 10K next year.

So thats the first of my 7 2011 races done. Just a reminder of what I'm doing...

7 races. 10th April - 2nd October. Races of 5K - half marathon. Total race distance 1.5 marathons. Fundraising for Bobby Moore Fund/Cancer Research UK. Target £1000.

Can anyone suggest some fundraising ideas for me? I have asked friends, family, colleagues for support and have been using social media (Tumblr, Facebook).

I'm interested in ways to further spread the word of what I'm doing so think an event of some sort in the local community is the way forward. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
