Over the course of the next four weeks our Church Lead Shelley Dring is set to face two enormous challenges; this Sunday she lines up for the Great North Run, a half marathon that leads out from Newcastle city centre to the coast and back again and then just three weeks later, on Sunday October 2nd she laces her trainers up again to tackle the daddy of them all the 26 and a bit mile London Marathon.
Obviously it goes without saying that Shelley wouldn’t have entered these two events if she didn’t love running. However, there’s more to it than that. As many of you will recall Shelley’s dad Steve died last November and it’s in his memory that she has signed up with the fund raising site Just Giving to try raise as much money as she can for the Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation.
If you would like to help Shelley reach her £2,200 target just click on this link HERE or alternatively I’m certain she wouldn’t be too embarrassed if you were to give her your donation in person.
Thank you.
