Relay...

We did the relay for life overnight, walking around the track from 4pm until 10am this morning. I have had a great time and even managed to get a couple of hours sleep between 2 and 6am. The whole team had a lot of fun. I seemed to pack enough to camp out for a week, not just one night!

 At midnight we had to walk in our PJ's with a teddy bear. There were lots of other novelty laps and fun things to keep us entertained. We thought we were a shoe in for the best theme team as we all had our scrubs on but ended up with a prize for the best chicken dance.

We were all pretty tired this morning but very happy with our efforts, raising over $5000 so far. Not too late to add a donation in my name on this link

I walked for about 7 hours all up and even did my running program at 6am after just a couple of hours of broken sleep.

We are planning next years event already!

Relay for life...

I am involved in this years Relay for Life for the Cancer Council.

Our 27 member team for Djerriwarrh Health Services is going to walk around the oval at Maddingley Park, sing a little karaoke and catch some sleep in tents over the weekend. I'm excited by the weather forecast, looks like it will be quite nice.

I've set a goal for fundraising and am appealing for your help. Please follow the link to make a donation to our team effort, just a $10 donation will help our team and go towards the cancer cause. Amounts over $2 are tax deductible.

Hopefully I can combine a little training with a good cause and some fun.

Thankyou

Back to...

work

school

but starting on a Wednesday has thrown me out. The best bit is for me it is a very short week, work again tomorrow and then I'm done.

After the rush of blood I had when I registered for the 4km fun run, today I registered for the work team in the Relay for Life. It is being held in September and involves lapping the local oval for 24 hours. The walking bit will be fine but I'm not keen on sleeping on the ground!
