To everyone thats already done their RACE FOR LIFE & to all the kind sponsors!
Between us, we've raised a phenomenal amount for Cancer Research.
I dedicate this poem, one of my favorites to every one of us!!!!Phenomenal WomanPretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a womanPhenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.Maya AngelouKind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless. ~ Mother Teresa0 -
That's a great one Kirsty, I love it. I think I believe in it all too - phenomenally so in fact!
What a fantastic job they've all done, you will have too very soon!Take care of FIL.

good luck to those that still have the race to go, donations on my page have ended now, and i managed to raise £740 including all the giftaid, here is a link to my page if anyone wants to see people's kind words
www.raceforlife.org/jayneaherne
...... i used my free texts to send a general text out to everyone with my link on it, and i made a facebook group and invited all my facebook contacts, i then (this is shameless!) put my sponsor page link as a signature on all my work emails...... worked trumps for me though
best of luck
