Race For Life: do your bit!

The wife has signed herself up to take part in Race For Life, where women across Britain run five miles to raise money for Cancer Research UK. It's a great idea and a good cause - let's face it, who hasn't lost somebody they care about to cancer? If you want to sponsor the wife and her workmates, click the headline on this post or past the following URL into your browser: http://www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/kersewell

In Edinburgh the runners are going around Arthur's Seat, a rather spectacular rock formation in the centre of the city, but one with plenty of hills and dales involved. As a consequence, the wife has gone into training for the next eight weeks, and I'm training with her as moral support. Three times a week we're getting up before dawn and going running - not something I ever thought I'd be doing! I keep remembering the pre-dawn running scene from Rocky. Fortunately, we don't have to swallow five raw eggs before we take to the streets.

So, if you've ever gotten a smile or a useful piece of information from this blog, now's the time to pay up! Click the link and get sponsoring - http://www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/kersewell
