Dani's 2013 Challenges.....
Mon 31st December 2012
1 day until it's all systems go, go, go.......
During 2012 I set myself some challenges to raise money in memory of my lovely Dad who lost his battle of Pancreatic Cancer back in 1996 at the very young age of 44.
So, in Sept I took on the infamous Great North Run, completing it is 3:22, London Shine - a 26.2 mile night walk through London, and a 9 mile Stride for Survival around Grafham Water. I managed to raise over £1400 for two fab charities - Pancreatic Cancer Action and Cancer Research UK.
2013.... well, initially I thought I would do just one personal challenge to test myself, so I signed up for the 100km Trans-Pennine Challenge taking place in June... I caught the bug, 1 challenge has now become 10 raising money for Pancreatic Cancer Action and Macmillan Cancer Support; with an additional personal challenge thrown in!
So, 2013 is looking like this:
PCA - 02/Feb - Rauceby Ripper - 14km run
MAC - 02/Mar - Legends of Sherwood - 10km night obstacle run
PCA - 17/Mar - Barrow Spring Challenge - 26.2 mile walk
MAC - 28/Apr - Hope & Glory - 14 mile walk
PCA - 29/May - Dane's Threesome - National 3 Peaks
MAC - 22/Jun - Trans-Pennine Challenge - 100km in 24hrs
MAC - 18/Aug - Hard as Dales - 28 mile walk
PCA - 15/Sept - Great North Run - 13.1 mile run
PCA - 06/Oct - Royal Parks Half - 13.1 mile run
MAC - 20/Oct - Great Birmingham Half - 13.1 mile run
plus... To the Moon and back with Moon Joggers.... 2013 miles throughout 2013 :)
Well, a new year is nearly upon us. I am so looking forward to what 2013 will bring.
Happy New Year!
