 Poster: A snowHead
|
Thanks to all who sponsored my efforts this weekend. In the end I finished my (so-called) fun run in 1 hour 30 minutes. If you recall the coverage, I was the chair overtaken in the last three hundred metres by the winning male runner.
Through this run I have raised approximately £2500 for The Uphill Ski Club (also know as Disability Snowsport UK).
You are a very generous lot!
If anyone wishes to have more details on this charity, then please send me a private message and I'll be pleased to answer your questions.
Dave.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Choodalls, I know this is a long shot, but do you know a guy called Arthur who has two artificial legs. He designs some of the sit skis, as far as I remember, and sometimes goes to MK for disabled events.
I can't remember his surname, I've met him a few times - on flights to Denver, at MK, and other places, but haven't seen him in maybe 2 or 3 years.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Sorry, don't know Arthur! Which in itself is a bit odd as the skiing community is pretty tight knit.

Choodalls, if Martin Bell reads this, he might remember the guy's surname.

Actually, if he skis at MK I can probably track him down as my friend Jan Williams runs disabled sessions there, so let me know if you'd like me to do some detective work!

Well done Choodalls. On the down side 4 deaths this year, very sad.

Choodalls, congratulations.  If you'd like to say more about the Uphill Ski Club, I'm sure it will be of general interest.
ChrisB - another snowHead was also doing the Great North Run - so congratulations to him too.

Congratulations Choodalls! I was watching the finish of the elite mens and saw a wheelchair racer being diverted down into another lane so I guess that was you It's great you raised so much for the Uphill Ski Club - I'm sure many here would be interested to hear whenever there is any news or updates you can give us regarding the club.

You know it makes sense.
