Another crazy idea...

April 13 2008... Not long until I am going to be pounding the streets of London in my second attempt at the London marathon. Two years ago I ran (well jogged slowly)as a penguin to raise funds for Children with Leukaemia. I remember it as being 'fun' - amazing at my ability to block out bad and painful memories! This time, I am running for what I believe is the greatest threat facing the world as we know it - climate change. In undertaking this personal challenge, I want to raise awareness of the issues and throw out a challenge to everyone who reads this blog to make small changes in their lives. Afterall, many small changes can make a huge difference.
So here's how it works - last time I was pestering you for money. This time instead of money I want you to pledge to make small changes and list these under the comments sections to give other people ideas. Parents - get your kids involved. Kids - get your parents involved! 60 days of training and a lifetime of change starts tomorrow. Ready, steady, go!

Tomorrow never comes....

Tomorrow I will do this, tomorrow I will do that. Tomorrow I will start training... The problem is that tomorrow never comes. Make a change today - fix that leaky tap, have a shorter shower, turn the tap off while brushing your teeth. Do it today!
Tomorrow I WILL start my training, otherwise I may never make the 42.2km. But if we don't all start making those small changes, the consequences will be much more dire than me not finishing the race.
