MSE Archna Marathon Supporters Club

MSE_Martin

I've decided to start a supporters club for MSE Archna who's running the Marathon this year. She's been working incredibly hard to train and get ready and all at MSE Towers are very proud of her.

Why's she doing it?

You can read her story on her fundraising page. Her brother was very ill with a kidney transplant last year, and she's supporting the charity.

Archna's Just Giving Page and the Story

Please show her all the support you can, any donation - even £1 would be great, for those who can afford it.

Watch out for her if you're going to see the Marathon

Sadly, I'll be away. Yet if anyone reading this is going to the marathon and you spot her (she'll have a 'supported by MoneySavingExpert.com' printed on the back of her running shirt). Please give her a cheer.

PS for those of you who don't know. MSE Archna doesn't just do her 'game of the week' in the email. She's my senior consumer issues researcher, doing the analysis on all non-money product moneysaving. Plus she's in charge of organising the content for the weekly email, checking it and making it all go smoothly. Without her the whole thing would go kaput!

Just done my donation. Good Luck Archna.

Lets hope other MSE members help bring your total fundraising to a great sum.

Will be watching (from the comfort of my sofa)

Thanks very much for the kind words Martin, and for starting this thread!

And thanks to you all for taking the time to read it and donate if you're able. I would love to raise as much cash as possible for the charity, it means alot to me and my family.

Thanks again!

Thanks beanielou! Only 10 days to go now and the best bit of training - less running, more sleep and loooaddds of carbs

:beer: to you at the finish line! All the best Archna (used to work with an Archna, lovely name but she wanted to us to call her Archie!), I'm in awe - can't run for the bus without getting a stitch!

Thanks for the support and donation sue-y! Trust me I am not a natural runner and never thought I'd be able to do it either but here I am! (Archie's been my nickname since I've been little too - always confuses people when they expect to see a boy!)
