Cool

Hello Blindside,. .I think what you're doing is excellent, I too will be running the Marathon on April 14 and collecting for a small local charity, however my main reason is because i love distance running and i am well seasoned to it. You however,point out that its boring sometimes which means that this is real hard work for you, most people will never know how much work goes in to marathon training,i guess this will be your first marathon.... I wish you the very best of luck on the day,..Cheers, 26point2.. .(we don't need to sponsor each other do we?, we're doing our bit!!!) <img src="cool.gif" border="0">

Since the other thread's closed, I guess I'll just have to up my donation to £20, the other £10 for saying the sensitive reaction shown to a few. .rash words on one posting is staggering- the WTC tradegy 6 months old, peoples lives in tatters, the industry in tatters- give the guy a break, at least he's trying to do some good. I for one can see the passion behind the words.. . And if you want to reply negatively, then please follow the protocol and pay £10 for the privelage!!!!!!!

Go on then - £26.20 from me.. .. .I saw the grinning & leaping around of a very happy new cadet 2 Friday nights ago when they got the acceptance phonecall from Astreus. I think it's worth it for that alone. If the fund continues to make contributions like that to the career of a few wannabes then it has to be a good thing.. .. .Good Luck Blindside. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" />

Four weeks to go!!! Several hundreds of pounds promised! Fantastic.. .. .T'would be brilliant if we could get it up to £1000. That would swell the Fund.. .. .Well done Blindside and well done those who have so far sponsored him. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" />
