SPONSORSHIP - GOOD CAUSE 10K run

Hi all..

I know this is a little cheeky seeing as there has been a few of these on recently, as some of yo know my dad is unwell at the moment, reason for this is a form of cancer called Myeloma, more can be found here at the MYELOMA WEBSITE

My dads condition isnt good, please see my other post here with more info

Now comes to the crunch, a lot of you have met me/know me and lets be honest, i'm overweight, would get out of breath running for a bus let alone a charity event so this run that I'm going to taking part in isnt just a 10k run for me, its  also about me getting myself a little more in shape whilst doing what i can for the myeloma organisation..

Anything you can spare will be a great help, both as extra motivation for me to complete the run and also to raise as much money and awareness as possible, to view my sponsorship page and make a donation, please click MY SPONSORSHIP PAGE or if that doesnt work, just Steven Laws is fundraising for Myeloma UK

If anyone just wants to send me an amount to throw in the pot, please pm me and I'll send you my details

To help this organisation further I've decided to run in the London great run on the 20th July in Hyde Park, I'll be wearing a bright orange tee shirt with Myelome splattered across it

Thanks a lot guys n gals

steve

Do excuse my stupid but how do we sponsor you?

I know it's not about you but you get what I mean, you're doing the event and I'm sure you'd like to know what YOU raised.

Edit: Just looked at it again, I assume you want the money to directly to this area of research and not Cancer research in general, in which case I understand.

click the link above or below in my signature, that should (if its working) redirect you to a just giving webpage, then click the sponsor me now button and it should be there..
Only just set it up so not sure if its working or not


As to where it goes, I asked my dad about ti and he said the cancer research gets loads of donations and  he would prefer it to go to the myeloma organistion as they have been brilliant in helping him and offer support to everyone who has this form of cancer

Thanks for asking mate

steve

Are you going to run a poll where we can help decide on the outfit?

I should still have your address dude, so I'll just send a cheque.

Good luck with the run, I couldn't manage 10m let alone 10k  :wink:

If I reach the target then we'll see..

no matter what the costume is tho, I'll still have to wear the bright orange Myeloma Tee shirt over it tho…

Jase, I appreciate that a lot mate and I'm sure the charity will as well..
thanks a lot mate, will mean a lot to my dad to see it growing as well

As to costumes, if it gets to 1500, then I'll start a poll, if it hits the 2k mark that I'd love to achieve then i'll wear the costume, but will have the myeloma orange tee shirt on regardless…

nothing too outrageous tho as its for a great cause..

Plus I'll stand out like a saw thumb, big fat tattoo'd bloke with a red face panting like a crazy fool….

Eck, received your cheque mate, thanks a lot, will add to pot soon,…

Yes i got the DVd as well, your a legend in your own right mate..

I'm getting there slowly, 25% to target now..

Paula Radcliffe runs in speedo type shorts and in the olympics i think it was she did a No2 half way round in her shorts
make sure you either go before you run, wear a nappy, or take a pooper scupper with you
