Well my JUST GIVING PAGE stands at 95% right now and I have yet to add the Nuneaton Ropewalk Collection of £417.00!!  So that will take me over my target which is very exciting!!  But id like to carry on and raise as much money as I can so if you havent donated yet please consider taking part in my GUESS THE FINISHING TIME competition for the Marathon!  For just £1.00 you could win some amazing prizes!
Another big SHOUT OUT to Mark at Sporting Touch, Nuneaton for printing my Nurses Tunic ready for the race on Sunday!  It looks BRILLIANT! :D

What a fantastic day we had at the Clocktowers shopping centre at Rugby.  THANKYOU to all the generous people who donated on the day and good luck to all of those who entered the Guess the Finishing TIme Competition!  We have quite a lot of guesses now :D
We had a great day and I think everyone enjoyed meeting Monty Bear.  I managed to cycle 5 hrs non-stop and it was worth the brilliant amount raised towards the charity challnege and ultimately the Nurse Appeal. :D 
The money will be paid into the JUSTGIVING Account by the end of this week so we will have a nice little boost to the total!

This week has been a fantastic fundraising week!  A local company www.showerdoorrollers.co.uk has made a massive donation which covers the "cost" element of the challenge along with a significant donation to the Myton Hospices.  So now every penny that is donated will go directly to Myton :)
Along with that I have had several individual donations and we are getting a few entries into the "Guess the finishing time" competition!

GREAT WEEK!!!

Look what arrived in the post today!!  2 tickets to admit four people into Hatton Farm Village!

This will be one of our prizes for the "Guess the Finishing Time" competition where for a donation to my JUST GIVING PAGE you can predict my finishing time for the half or full marathon (or BOTH for two donations lol!)  The closest person and two runners up will receive a PRIZE!  More prizes will be added as they arrive so keep checking our COMPETITION PAGE for full details :o)

As much as the training is important to get me up them mountain passes, Im under pressure this year to raise a minimum sponsorship amount and by a deadline of the beginning of May!  Right now this feels the more daunting of the two!
So I have set up my JUST GIVING PAGE, made a poster, set up a FACEBOOK PAGE and started putting the word about the challenge in the public domain.  I have also come up with some fairly madcap ideas for a couple of fundraising competitions which involves me running a half and a full marathon and you guys predict the closet time......winner gets a prize!  But I will do a specific BLOG about these events and how you can enter!
Technology has moved on even a year and you can now TEXT me a donation by texting TOIL99 and your donation (£1, £2, £5 or £10) and sending to 70070.  There are NO charges and you can gift aid the amount donated meaning even more money goes to Myton :D
And finally if you have an iPhone or Smart Phone you can SCAN the following QRCode and it takes you straight to my JUST GIVING page!  How fantastic is THAT!  

So far I have 5 donations directly to my Just Giving Page and one donation of admission tickets to HATTON WORLD for the "Guess the Finishing Time" Prizes!  THANKYOU EVEYONE!
So all in all a rather good start :D
