I really need to get to bed!
But it's been a while since my last post so before I (hopefully) get some sleep the last week or so has involved:
Shock, sadness and sympathy for the bereaved and injured in Boston - my heart absolutely goes out to you all.
Some running - some of it even in the sunshine!! Just about perfect conditions for tomorrow which is great.
A great experience at the expo picking up my number.
A lot more tears - the donations and incredible messages have continued to pour in. At the time of writing an unimaginable five and a half thousand pounds has been raised. Even a coffee morning at which I hoped to raise twenty or thirty pounds brought in an amazing £211. I am grateful beyond words. My aim was to make a horrible thing that happened to a great man something that good could come from - and thanks to all of you it has.
I will be carrying all that love and support with me. And especially carrying with me my beautiful Grandad, my Granny, Great Uncle Ken, Jo's Grandad, Rebecca's grandparents, Jane's Mum, Caroline's Dad, Phil's Mum, the Richardons and above all my wonderful family and the hope that we can find out how to make this horrible disease a thing of the past. Thank you for all your donations that are helping the great work that goes towards that goal, and to supporting the families who need support. You are all amazing!
See you at the finish line....!
