‘There once was a loon from the moon, who ran from midnight to noon, she ran in the rain,
she ran in the sun, she ran until 2012 miles was done’
Welcome to my pages for my challenge to run 2012 miles in 2012 to raise money for a holiday home for Thrive (Cardiff). I am doing this challenge to give something back to Thrive, who have supported me and my disabled son for the last 7 years.
Caring for a disabled child day in day out is rewarding but very challenging and brings with it many daily stresses. Parents need to find a way of coping with this if they are to survive and my way of coping is to run. I haven’t always had this coping mechanism over the last 10 years and there have been many personal lows whilst coming to terms with my son’s difficulties.
Thrive (Cardiff) and running are the two things that enable me to cope with the demands of caring for my son, and it made perfect sense to bring the two together and raise money for Thrive to buy the holiday home they have always wanted for their families.
So please take a look at these pages, and follow my blog page, to keep up to date with challenge day by day, week by week. If you wish to donate to this great cause please see my 2012 donate page for details or download the Information Pack or email me direct at shazza.murray@sky.com.

We could really use 50 volunteers to commit to getting sponsorship of £1/mile over the next year – talking to family, friends, neighbors, relatives, pub, club, work etc
There will be many opportunities for everyone to personally participate in many fun runs and “wacky” activites along this epic journey- each one providing an opportunity for further sponsorship by others………and you wont need to be super fit to join in !
50 of us will mean we are half way to target on £100,600
