The 31st December 2018 is the cut-off date for my Justgiving running challenge raising funds for Womankind Charity.

I successfully reached my 100 Half Marathon goal, and along the way raised £2498.92 plus £100 from the Poppy Half Marathon for Womankind Charity, and £961.00 for local Brighton domestic abuse charity RISE.

Barring any last minute additions my grand total is:

£3559.92 !! 🙌

Thanks to everyone who supported me through donations and encouragement.

Last minute donations can be made here before the 31/12/2018 deadline:

10K run to the lighthouse and back. 51:44mins

Long afloat on shipless oceans

I did all my best to smile

'Til your singing eyes and fingers

Drew me loving to your isle

And you sang

Sail to me

Sail to me

Let me enfold you

Here I am

Here I am

Waiting to hold you

Did I dream you dreamed about me?

Were you hare when I was fox?

Now my foolish boat is leaning

Broken lovelorn on your rocks,

For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow:

O my heart, O my heart shies from the sorrow"

I am puzzled as the newborn child

I am troubled at the tide:

Should I stand amid the breakers?

Should I lie with Death my bride?

Hear me sing, "Swim to me, Swim to me, Let me enfold you:

Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"

- Tim Buckley ‘Song to the Siren’ 1968

My ears first happened upon a version of this sung by This Mortal Coil in the late 80s, and then again in more recent years by Sinead O’Connor, Jimmy Page and John Frusciante.

All beautifuls 🖤
