View Full Version : I'm doing a 10k run! Sponsor me?
6 months ago a guy from work challenged me (and him) to train for, and run, a 10k. At the time neither of us could run more than 10 minutes without collapsing so it's been a BIG challenge!
Anyway, the date is looming and we left it until today to sign up so we had plenty of time to wimp out! We'd love to raise a lot of money for Cancer Research UK through this - 1 in 3 of us will get cancer in our lifetime so I feel really strongly about this charity!
Our sponsorship page is http://www.run10ksponsorme.org/systemagic so please do go and sponsor us, even £1 is enough to make a difference!
Thanks :)
Done! :D
Having lost a few close people to cancer over the years this is a pet charity of mine.[smiley=thumbsup.gif]

I'll bung you a tenner mate. Do you ever get in Phoenix? If so, I could leave it with the guys for you to pick up? If not, let me know where I can drop it off... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
I don't often go in there mate, but you can still sponsor by debit car at www.run10ksponsorme.org/systemagic - that's live for another week or so! Thanks for all the support :D
