Please Sponsor My Wife For A Good Cause!

Post by rossybee » Thu May 03, 2007 12:12 pm

Hi all, my wife Kim and her sister Alison are doing the Moonwalk in Edinburgh, it's a full marathon length powerwalk which starts at 11pm on the 16th June, and they have to do it wearing only their bras on their top halves! :shock: :wink:

Its purpose is to raise money for breast cancer (see the link above) and we would be most grateful of any kind donations, I have set up their very own Just Giving Fundraising Page to make things easier, so please have a look and give some words of encouragement! :wink:

They have been in training for a while (sometimes going for 14 mile powerwalks :o), so are taking things seriously and hope to get a good time in! 8-)

I'll keep you posted of their progress and will be posting their final time to do the 26 miles ;)

Many thanks in advance for any donations received! ;)

Mucho respecto to the Wife for doing this.

My other half is trying to get a space to do this too.

Good Luck to Kim and Alison!!!

Do they start at 11pm because the shops will be shut by then? :wink:

Good luck to her, am sponsoring a friend who's just lost her sister to the disease :cry:

It's something that has affected everyone in some way or another in the past - sorry to hear of your friend's sister :(


Kim's sister Alison had a mastectomy last year & has thankfully made a full recovery :D - part of the reason they're doing it I suppose
