Hi all

No begging, but just a note to say I'm doing the Yorkshire 3 peaks challenge on Saturday. A group of 10 of us from work are doing it for the charity 'Help for Heroes'. It is a charity set up to help the wounded soldiers who seem to be getting a bit of a raw deal at the moment. These guys are risking their lives to make the world a safer place, so if you would like to help, use the following to donate online :-

http://www.justgiving.com/Ian-Holland

Alternatively I can collect any donations of cash on Monday or Wednesday at the club.

No pressure, I realise these are hard times and you probably have lots of charities you give to but if you can help please do, no matter how small your donation.

Thanks

John

Back in one peice, although a bit sore.

Giving running a miss tonight and maybe Wednesday, I just want to master walking first. biggrin

We've raised nearly £2000 between us, online and with cash donations and we're still collecting for a couple of weeks yet, so those who have said you'll donate you will be able to when I return to running.

Thanks for your support and see you all soon.

John
