Birchwood 10k

This was another opportunity to raise awareness, rather than raise funds. Of course, if you want to help us in our fund-raising efforts, you're more than welcome, but more of that later. From less than 100 runners in my last race, this was a chance to get the running 4 rwanda name in front of up to 1000 runners. If only 3% of the runners noticed the web address, and only 3% of those visited the web-site, then that's 1 extra reader. If you are that 1 extra reader, then thank you for visiting, and thanks for reading this far. Please take a few minutes to find out a little about the site by reading some of the entries, and looking at FAQs. If you want to join us, or find out a little bit more about us, please follow the Contact me link. If you would like to make a donation, no matter how big or small, there is an appeal open at www.bmycharity.com/mystery5k . Please feel free to make an online donation, or if you would rather send a cheque, please use the 'Contact me' lin

Mystery 5k

It'a August, and I'm racing again. As ever, it was a fast and furious 5k, with no time to catch your breath. I managed a half-respectable 20:46, which I am quite pleased about in the circumstances. But this site is not a Running site. The most important part of running 4 rwanda is not the 'running' part, but the 'rwanda' part.

I know times are hard - I am out of work myself - but if you feel you would like to make a donation, no matter how big or small, please go to my fund-raising page at www.bmycharity.com/mystery5k and make an online donation. If you would prefer to make a donation by cheque, or would like to know more about Shyira Trust, please use the 'Contact me' link above, and I'll tell you more. Please be assured that every penny
