One Bad Run Becomes Running with Purpose

One Bad Run Becomes Running with Purpose

I’m running again for charity. This time it’s for Dreams Come True and donations can be made quick and easy. Any little bit helps the kids! Much less important, but it also helps me.

Back on March 28th, I ran an awful half-marathon at 2.5 hours. The run happened in Liverpool, and despite the poor showing, I took some fun pictures. I didn’t run for charity and it was the worst time I’ve had. I’m now convinced that the only way to race is to run with a purpose. No more selfish runs that only mean something to me. I need to care about something more than time, and these kids need someone who cares: they need lots of people who care, actually.

No better way to find purpose and help the community than running for Dreams Come True.  Here’s a bit about Dreams:

Dreams Come True is a national charity serving the whole of the UK with the mission of bringing joy to children who are terminally or seriously ill by making their treasured dreams come true. Since the charity was incorporated in 1988 we have fulfilled the dreams of more than 4,500 children with severe and life threatening illnesses such as cancer, cystic fibrosis, cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy.

So on May 17th, I’m doing a ten-mile run for the kids. I want to raise £450.00 by then, and hope you can help.
