It's the thought of Kate's welcoming arms waiting for me on the finishing line that keep me going when the going gets tough!:D
 
Northerner, I wish you the very best of luck - I know you'll do it! Have just dropped into forum amid dealing with on-going family crisis. So sorry can't sponsor you, but my thoughts will be with you. good luck :D

Hehe I think we should drum up some forum support for you from all the members in the South 🙂

Hehe! You can tell Alex that I have only not finished two races - one because my leg broke at 23 miles, and the other because I was in hospital with DKA - it takes a lot to stop a Northerner!😉

Eeek!! 😱 How'd you manage that?! I knew it!...exercise really IS bad for you!

Guess I'd better get my bum in gear & sponsor you so you're incentivised not to break any more limbs! All the best with the training, & TAKE CARE!!

I know - I have friends who have done all sorts of dangerous things, but I break the biggest, thickest and strongest bone in my body in the hazardous pursuit of...running!😱 (I did try to get up and finish, by the way, but the ambulance men wouldn't let me!)

Thanks Twitchy!🙂

I once fell over whilst drunk and broke my hand and little finger - that was worse than breaking the leg in some ways!

This is what my leg looks like now (or rather, an x-ray of it!):

Faith, thank you so much! No donation is small, large or in-between (although OAPs may be!:D), they are all precious and all welcome, and I am touched and encouraged by every one!🙂

Oops! Having a hypo - time for some jelly babies! First one I've had in ages, must be the heat!
