Title: Swindon Half marathon Sponsorship Post by: Bogus Dave on Monday, August 20, 2007, 21:41:32 Me and my mate are running the swindon half marathon this october, in an attempt to raise money for the prospect hospice. My mate has had 2 of his grandparents end their life there, and so its a cause that means a lot to him. We're trying to raise £600, which may be being a tad optimistic, but you have to have something to aim for.
I've set up a page on justgiving.com, in which people can pledge money online. This has the benefit of cutting out the middle man (me), and meaning the money goes straight to the Hospice. If You could donate at least a fiver each, then it would be greatly appreciated, by everyone. Thanks.

Seconded. Title: Swindon Half marathon Sponsorship Post by: Give us an S on Tuesday, August 21, 2007, 20:01:10 Are places still open for the half marathon Dave? I bottled it and did the 5.1 mile (or whatever it is) run last time (Well 2 years ago). Mainly due to not training at all. I did come in the top 30 in that though so should have done the big one i think.
I quite fancy going for the half marathon this time. If you could send me details that would be great. Title: Swindon Half marathon Sponsorship Post by: Bogus Dave on Tuesday, August 21, 2007, 20:04:46 No probs.
