A blog to document the highs, lows, thrills and spills of running 100 10K runs in 100 days for the JDRF. The running started on June 11th and the final, 100th run will be the Bupa Great North Run on September 18th. I aim to raise both money and awareness of Type 1 Diabetes, in particular the great work the JDRF do as the leading charity in Type-1 Diabetes research funding.

Sponsorship Update
I'm really pleased to say that I have hit £1,200 on my "100runs4jdrf" JustGiving page. Thank you to everyone who has donated so far. My target is £2,000 and to reach £1,200 at this stage is brilliant news.
Everyone who donates via the JustGiving page should automatically receive a thank-you and acknowledgment, I've also made space to mention them on this blog, however I've had more donations since I last did this, so to bring it up to date I'd like to thank:
Yogita Mistry, June Roebuck, Kirsty Jones, Lucy Howard, Laura Brown, Fran Benson, Gareth and Nicky Dean, Jaci Morton and Jacqui Stephenson-Kirkbride.
Thank you!
My sister gets married next Saturday, where I am due to undertake the role of Master of Ceremonies. Lucy and Mike have made a very touching and generous way of acknowledging the 100 runs challenge on their big day and I'm very humbled by such a gesture. When the wine is flowing, who knows? I may enlist more runners to join me the day after for run number 93...

Hello from the Great State of Texas! I happened upon your blog while searching for a picture of the number 40. (Hope you don't mind that I borrowed yours.)
ReplyDeleteI love what you are doing and wanted to take a moment to encourage you to continue on! Amazing!
My daughter was in Ireland at the same time as you and is now is Austria studying abroad. Small worlds collide.
Praying for your healthy finish to day 100! I will be cheering you all the way!
