Title: begging time
Post by: maddog04 on 16 August 2012, 10:58:46 am
right, I don't normally do this but here goes............I'm doing the marathon but the twist is I'm carrying a 55lb back pack (please don't start about knees/back etc as I'm getting enough grief of the mrs)
monies raised will go to children who have suffered burns (Alder Hey Childrens hospital (burns unit) they take kids from all over)
if you can spare anything at all then please follow my link
thanks a lot http://www.justgiving.com/John-McBrion (http://www.justgiving.com/John-McBrion)

Good luck mate, wouldn't fancy it myself even without the back pack it'd probably kill me.

cheers Rikki and thanks for the donation
done a half marathon distance last Wednesday with 42 lb on and it wasn't too bad except for the rain, worst weather ever and I couldn't have been any wetter
if you remember the bucket of water song from TISWAS then you'll get an idea when cars were going past!
dark at 14:00 hrs in the afternoon, vehicles with lights on, my feet numb as I ran thru puddles that were over me ankles!
I was as happy as a pig in sh*te :lol
