In a moment of madness Mike and I entered the Force Century Cycle Challenge, and on 26 June we're cycling 100 miles to raise money for Force. It took us 4 hrs to do 45 miles this week, so it's going to be a long day on 26th! I may not be in any fit state to coach on the Monday! PLEASE help us to help those affected by cancer. This is no easy challenge (for me and Mike anyway!), so if you can spare a few pennies it would be very much appreciated. Please visit www.justgiving.com/karengutansforce.

Many thanks,

Karenx

PS: I can make the swim sets harder/easier depending on the response I get for sponsorship Twisted Evil !!!

100 miles in 6 hrs 52 (7 hrs 40 with stops). That was THE HARDEST thing I've ever done. Physically and mentally challenging. Very tough ride and very hot. Glad it's over, and very pleased to have raised over £300 so far. PLEASE keep the donations coming - that was such a tough ride and I was fighting back the tears at times, whilst trying to focus on why I was doing it. www.justgiving.com/karengutansforce.

Many thanks.
