Please Sponsor My Wife For A Good Cause!

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

Sounds like a good spectator sport.
We'll all know where to find Shug that day
Good on your missus, and good luck!

Do they start at 11pm because the shops will be shut by then?
Good luck to her, am sponsoring a friend who's just lost her sister to the disease

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
- part of the reason they're doing it I suppose
