Title: I'm running a half marathon for charity. Would any of you sponsor me?
Post by: NejStark on May 28, 2014, 06:04:28 pm
Im doing it for the RNLI, a charity in the UK who pluck people from the ocean who need help. I havent made my sponsorship page, but just wondering if anyone would be interested in sponsoring me. If yes, I'll post it when I do it, if no, then I won't.
Here is their Youtube channel which includes some rescues: https://www.youtube.com/user/officialrnli/videos

I must be new here, but I don't get how is running linked with charity? And half marathon is like 24 km, right? Doesn't seem like a big deal, I mean ofc it's cool to run long distances but... How does this whole thing work?

Those stupid people put themselves in danger in the first place. They don't need anyone's help! ;)
Honestly, though, that's great. I wish I would help, but I won't at the moment. Maybe in the future, for another run. Until then, you have my well wishes for the run.

Oh, you didnt like it? I worked in side mission level design team for maybe 7 months up til maybe 18 months ago. If you have a complaint about that, go ahead. Anything else, or stuff that was made in the last 18 months...
Never should've given up on long distance running, I knew it!
