NO GO!

Well it is all over!

I will not be running the half marathon this year.

The excuse given -- too dangerous, tight turns, 

difficult roads and any other excuse they can think up.

If I can run the Childrens Hospital Fun Run,

with 29,999 other people over rough roads, 

 very tight turns and even a U-turn on half a road,

without causing an accident,

why cant I do the same thing in the half marathon?

All I am being offered, is the untimed 4k.

I am not even allowed to run the timed 5.7k.

which I could do with my eyes closed!

At present I am feeling very hurt.

I have been amazed at all the wonderful support I have received during the past few months, 

and I would like to thank you all

for having faith in me.

This is not the end of my fight for equality!!

I am going to do the long run for the RCH in April next year.

I will run through the tunnel and over the Bolte Bridge, almost 15 k. and probably harder for me

than the marathon.

I hope everyone will continue to suport me in my fight for disability

and for the kids hospital.

Until next time -- Keep Happy!
