Run, Adam, Rum
I've taken the unprecedented step of doing something good. A colleague and I have decided to do the 16 km Paris - Versailles run in September of this year and, guess what? I'm doing it for charidy!
We're doing the run in honour of a friend who has taken the insane decision to run the Marathon De Sables in April next year. This is a 6 day, 151 mile beast of an endurance run across the Sahara desert.
If that wasn't bad enough, he has to raise £10,000 in contribution to Mencap.
His bravery inspired us to attempt our run, which is paltry in comparison. But hell - you have to start somewhere, right?
I've never done a run before. I'm rubbish at running. My face goes all red and I look like a tool. But I would like to raise money in support of
Carl and to help him towards his own goal.
So will you sponsor me? Any money that I do raise in sponsorship I will donate to Carl and help him towards his own target. And all money will ultimately go to Mencap to support the work they do.
Any donation, no matter how big or how small, would be gratefully received.
Check out the rather natty website I designed below. Impressive? Hell yeah! I am also available to design your own website - for a small fee!
