    I was hoping all of you would read the attached article. I am the teacher organising this and am currently in training (with nearly 17 stone to lug around, this is a massive challenge for me personally, as well as for the 39 others).

    http://www.southwalesargus.co.uk/ne...n_Newport_half_marathon_to_help_fight_cancer/

    If the article hits home with any of you, I would be incredibly grateful if you could please sponsor us. Any amount you give will makes difference to someone suffering with cancer. You can use the link or the phone number below

    www.justgiving.com/rougemontschool

    or text 70070 with the word RGMT99 followed by £1, £2, £3, £4, £5 or £10

    Thank you,

    Andy (Cardiff Saint)

    It's all about the hours put into training. Keep at it. It will be a fantastic feeling when you cross that line for multiple reasons. Good luck!

    P.S. The links aren't links.

    Thank you so much RSS, you are very kind.

    No idea why they aren't links for you, they work on my phone...not too tech savvy sorry.

    Not to worry! I copied and pasted them. Just thought I'd let you know so it's easy for others to donate if they want to. I see Qwerty has linked them now anyway!

    I've had a few anonymous donations since putting this message on here. If you are one of these donors, then thank you very much, you are making a difference.

    Best of luck Cardiff Saint. When the going get's tough just concentrate on why you are doing it and you'll get through!
