SCB Charity Run 2010 - Brunei

I registered to join this event, and received my still-glossy donation card today. So, on 8 August 2010, hubby and I will be running in the 10km individual category, the reg fee of which is BND20 per pax. My friend, LAZsie wanted to join in the 10km Challenge where you can run blindfolded with a friend or partner (who's NOT blindfolded, btw, or else you two are doomed!). While she was enthusiastic, I was just worried that she might get preggers by August and who will be left holding my hand then?

Another fashionasti friend, who's fit enough to run a full marathon and back (I believe so), is still undecided whether he wants to run and help charities OR whether he wants to fit in one last getaway party weekend before Ramadhan rolls along (mana lagi yang banyak pahala?). Oooops, did I just say that? Heheh, you know who you are and I know you're not mad at me for saying this in public. In fact, I know you're used to it and will still be my friend.

Of course, with this intent having been made official, I now have to raise some funds. The causes are all good and legit, so I don't mind running for these:  Pusat Ehsan Al-Ameerah Al-Hajjah Maryam, Persatuan Kanak-Kanak Cacat (KACA) and Standard Chartered Bank’s Seeing Is Believing Programme.

Upon registration, these are what you'll get:
• Exclusive Standard Chartered Run Shirt
• Donation card to help raise funds for charity
• Chance to win great prizes in a lucky draw
• Chance to win fun prizes for fancy dress and Spot-the-Liverpool-shirt during the Run
• Certificate of completion when you complete the Run

Obviously there are cash prizes for the winners in each category, but I don't really care about all that because I'm definitely not going to win and besides, this is a charity event. We somehow have to be gracious and look past things like prize-money and such. Of course, if I was fit enough and think I have even a glimmer of winning, then I would publicise the prizes here! Haha, what a hypocrite.

Right, now's the time I find out who are my friends and who are really my friends. Don't forget to SPOONSURE me, y'all..... and sponsor me GOOD! It's all for a good cause, I repeat.
