Somehow a customer (and all round good guy- hi Alan!) convinced me that I should join him in the Oxfam Trailwalker this year. So I’m asking the subscribers on this list to please reach into your pockets and sponsor us. It would only take a couple of dollars from each of you to reach out target.
And if you think reaching into your wallet for your credit card is hard, consider this- I’ve just given up Sunday morning sleep-ins for the next 6 months! We’ve done stage 1 of the walk, and this will be way harder than the Half Marathon I’m also training for. It’s 100km through the bush in less than 48 hours.
Please consider a small donation for all the good work that Oxfam achieve..

I will promise you $20. Wish I could do more.
Thanks Lara, everything helps!
I’m not an “all-round good guy” — there are some angles from which I look rather sinister.
From personal experience of four previous Trailwalkers I can confirm that Adam’s about to endure hardship on a level he’s never experienced before… waiting another month for an iPad… but training and competing in Trailwalker will be pretty tough too.
Adam didn’t mention that he has to raise 1/4 of the team’s fund-raising goal of $5,000 or make up the difference himself, so please help him out and donate some money today.
Don’t forget it’s a tax deduction so you can have it all back come July!
