My Challenge gets its first bit of Press!!

My first bit of Press thanks to my colleagues at the Lloyds Banking Group and it prompted a further £43.25 in sponsorship which is great and means that I'm now into the £700 mark in my sponsorship!!! Let's hope this is the first of much more publicity, let's get the word out about this great fundraising idea and of course my very special charity!

All the sponsorship means so much to me and is definitely what drives me to get my trainers on and get out running or on my bike!

Press attention!

I've been busy on a mission to get the word out there about my challenge and the very special charity that I'm raising money for especially since I've added a new challenge (more on that later)!

After seeing all the press that Colin got and what in subsequently did to his fundraising, I decided I had to get some attention. So... I'm in the Crewe Chronicle next week (comes out next Wednesday-get yourself a copy). The Crewe Chronicle was important to me as Archie (my step-daddy) was from Crewe and had many, many friends so hopefully when they see the article they'll feel compelled to sponsor me!

I've also managed to get in some of the communications they send out at work! They'll be writing two articles about me which will be sent to different Lloyds Banking Group employees!

As soon as the articles are printed I'll try and scan them in!
