Hello Everyone.
As you are probably aware I am running in the Jane Tomlinson 10k in a couple of weeks time. I don't know if you know anything about her, but she was a pretty awesome lady from Leeds who was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2000 and told she had 6 months to live. She held on for 7 more years raising huge amounts of money for cancer charities by running in a lot of races and cycling across America. Pretty inspiring. Given recent events I will be running this race with my Aunt in mind, and I would really really appreciate it if any of you could sponsor me.
I am running with work as a team, so I don't have an individual sponsorship page and all money goes into the team pot. But you can leave comments on the website, or if you prefer to do it the old fashioned way and sponsor me in cash or by cheque that's fine too.
You can sponsor me here. Or if you want to post me a donation let me know and I'll furnish you with my address.
The race is on 22 June and apparently there are a couple of players from Leeds Rhinos and Leeds United running with us. What?!
I digress. Jane Tomlinson was an incredibly inspiring woman, and I am really proud that I'm taking part in something like this for the first time ever. Anything you can give at all will be gladly received. All the money goes to her appeal, which then distributes it to various cancer charities, including Macmillan. If you are a UK taxpayer please tick the gift aid box, as this adds 28p for every pound that you donate, at no extra cost to you.
I'll link to this a few times in the coming weeks and leave it unlocked for any benevolent strangers who may stray upon it.
Thanks!

Hello folks. You've stumbled upon the ramblings of ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) stolenokisses. I can't think why you'd be thinking of adding me, but if you are comment here so that I know, I'm a bit dozy y'see...I probably won't notice otherwise.
