Thank You!

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone who sponsored me to run the Manchester marathon, Friends of the Dogs Wales and I really appreciate it.

Knowing that I was fundraising for such an amazing cause helped me get through some of the toughest training runs I've ever done, they were brutal but I did it! The Manchester marathon was my first marathon and an amazing experience, I still can't quite believe that I've done it (my write-up is here).

So far you have helped me to raise £468.03 (including gift aid) which is incredible and will help so many doggies who don't have their forever home yet.

Yeah you are!!

My fundraising page is open until 10th July so if you haven't had chance to sponsor me but would still like to then please click here.

Thank you again!!

Run 26.2 Miles and Help The Puppies!

I have finally set up my fundraising page for Friends of the Dogs!

I know, right!

For those of you who haven't read my Marathon Madness and Puppy Dogs blog, I am running my first marathon in April 2016 and have decided to keep myself focussed by raising money for Friends of the Dogs.

Awwwwwwww!

I need all the help I can get, my training isn't going very well right now. Today's run started at 6am and it was raining that drizzly, soak-you-in-a-second kind of rain. I was miserable, cold, wet and wanted to quit before I reached the end of my road. I spent the whole run chanting "think of the puppy dogs... think of the puppy dogs" and it helped, I completed the run.

If you would like to help me raise as much money as possible then please go to https://mydonate.bt.com/fundraisers/saramorgan4. Every penny helps and will be greatly appreciated.

Holiday Cottage Heaven

Right now I am sat on the sofa in a holiday cottage in the Brecon Beacons and feel so peaceful. I am surrounded by countryside and mountains. My dog is asleep on his bed in front of the wood burner and snoring gently. It's raining outside and pretty windy but I don't care, in fact I'm loving it.

Zzzzzzz

I am in heaven but I also feel as though I could cry at the thought of having to leave here tomorrow morning. I have been here 3 nights and have loved every second of them. I feel sad that I'm going back to reality tomorrow and back to all the life issues I am trying to deal with.

*ping*

I have just created a new life goal! One day I will own a small cottage like this one with its wood floors, high ceilings, beams, wood burner and enclosed garden. I want to live in a rural location but not too rural. I want to be close enough to a village or small town so that I can get back into civilisation when I want to but also just far enough away so that I enjoy the peace and quiet. I will live near mountains and woods so that my dog and I can spend each day exploring. Heaven!
