I've been raising funds for St Benedict's Hospice since 1994. During this time I've been sponsored by a great many people for doing events ranging from the Great North Run right through to running from John O'Groats to Lands End.The pledges made yesterday took the total amount that I've raised to over £40,000. What a landmark!
I look forward, over the coming years, to continue to raise funds for the Hospice in memory of my Mam.
I hope that, as a result of this year's event, I've inspired lots of people to do the same for whatever cause is dear to them. I suspect that this is actually the case judging from the hundreds of emails I received over the last 6 weeks.
