Charity!

I am currently setting up a sponsorship page through justgiving.co.uk. Sitting here 'working' and browsing through the different organisations that I would like to donate money to. How it works is that I set up a page and then ask for 'sponsors', all the money given to us - me and Richard - will be transferred the chosen organisation.

I did my first run in march , a 10k run which I ran for CLIC  :0)
Felt great! Such an accomplishment, it was my first run EVER in history of running ever... and I loved it. Well loved it in a way that I set out do something and I did it despite finding it very challenging. *proud*
Yes, so now that I've established how cool I obviously think I am for doing a 10k race. It's time for the real deal. A HALF-MARATHON! Phew!
That is why I need to be strict with my gym regime and diet, getting in shape for a run is sooooo serious and I really need to be focused. It's a test of physical as well as mental strength.
This will be a challenge and a half x 5. But we will finish it. Richard has decided to join me as we're both intent on challenging our fitness this year. Can we do it? YES WE CAN!

Anyways, now my main thing is to chose what Charity to donate the money to. I definitely want to donate and support a cause that will contribute to helping an organisation in Africa, that's where I have my roots. North Africa - Morocco to be precise. So the search begins :)

p.s the sun has been hiding all morning but it decided to show it's pretty face now..... ! YAY! :D
