My Updates
Wow - the program is nearly over!
Tuesday 8th Sep
Helloo fellow sponsors and runners
I can't believe that the program is in it's final couple of weeks which means I will be running the Blackmores Bridge Run (9km) too soon!
I have met some amazing people who do and have done saome amazing things - both in the physical achievement area and those who just keep on giving - all with the aim of raising money for cancer research. I am so proud to know these people and congratulate them.
Just like I congratulate you for sponsoring me and realising that funds are needed for cancer research so we don't have to go through what so many people in the past have gone through. I would like to know that our children will grow up thinking that cancer is something of the past, not something that they should be worried about getting as they grow old.
This journey has been amazing, running with this group of people has been life changing - thank you.
See you on the bridge! Or better still at the finish line!
Kathy
I bummed out :-(

Gotta pat myself on the back - I gave blood but consequently I couldn't run hard last night.
Win some lose some
But I helped 3 other people
Why don't you help me by sponsoring me?
Another sweet run with CanToo and Parkrun
Tuesday 18th Aug
Hellooo!
While you guys were still in bed on Saturday morning, I dragged my husband and dog down to Curl Curl for our weekly run with Cantoo. This coincided with the Curl Curl Parkrun which I must say is a favourite of mine.
It was chilly, it was fun and it was fast! Another PB for me - getting closer to that seemingly ellusive 5min/km mark - now I am only 20sec off it!
Thank you to my friends who are supporting me on this journey - I am thinking of you when I am running, but i am also thinking of my friends who have battled cancer and what they have gone through. I am only putting myself through about 27 mins of pain in a morning, that's nothing compared to what some have battled. I am running for you.
If you can, I CANTOO!
Halfway through another program!
Tuesday 11th Aug
Hello fellow runners and followers of my blog,
It is week 5 of a 10 week program, I am not up to my halfway point in my fundraising but I know that you guys understand why I am doing this and what a great cause you are supporting.
We did our first time trial last week and, well it was hard! You have to be down at Chatswood Rotary on a Wednesday evening to realise how cold it gets, it is chilly. But I survived and yes, I am getting faster. I would be even faster if some of you threw some money at my fundraising page - so don't hesitate, just press the Sponsor Me button and let loose!
See you out there, because if I can you CANTOO!
I'm at it again!

So join me on my new journey whilst I develop my fitness and running technique to complete 9kms. I have goals, not only to run faster but to raise money for an amazing cause - Cancer Research - please help me reach those goals - click on the SPONSOR BUTTON now!
Thank you to everyone who has made a donation towards my goal
