Reading Half Marathon

Hi

I am taking part in Reading Half Marathon this year on March 20th 2011. I started running in order to lose weight and ran the Race for Life 5km in 2009. I felt I needed something of a bigger challenge the following year so decided to do the 10km Race for life in June 2010. I slowly progressed and wondered what to do next, the obvious choice was a half marathon, so here I am signed up for March 2011.

Why am I doing it? Well, I am raising money for charity and thought it ought to be something challenging if I am to get people to give me money.
Who am I raising money for? I am raising money for the Women's Ministry team in my church that will be going out to Eastern Europe taking aid out and encouraging other women out there. I would love to go out to Eastern Europe as I feel a real heart for that part of the world but the kids are too young for me to be away for a long period of time (only 10 days but that's long enough at their age) so I think this is good way for me to be involved.
This is such an exciting trip and I am really pleased to be able to support it.
Please would you support it also, through sponsoring me. I have no doubt it will be a tough challenge to complete but the finish line will be so much better knowing that I have done my part for this trip.

If you would like to sponsor me you can do so in one of the following ways
1. Email/facebook me how much you would like to sponsor me and I can add it to the sponsor form
2. See me on a sunday at church
3. Post me a cheque.

If you would like email or snail mail detail please message me on facebook. Thank you
