WAD 2012

Tomorrow is World AIDS Day.

This post is only a short one, but hopefully one that will bring a bit of joy to your weekend in the form of ICE CREAM. mmm just what you need on a cold, wintry day.

For the past year I have been volunteering at Chasing Zero, which is an HIV/AIDS charity that was founded by a brilliant and inspiring friend Joel Wallington after he left University. (http://www.wearechasingzero.org/).

I am incredibly passionate and excited by the work that Chasing Zero does and would love to invite you all to get involved with an event called Freeze-AIDS happening from 9pm tonight (30th November) til Saturday 1st December. 

For more info check out: http://www.freezeaids.org/

If you want to know a bit more about why we've organised it I wrote a blog for Chasing Zero featured on Tearfund's Rhythms page which you can see here: http://village.rhythms.org/noticeboard/lets-freeze-aids/

So if you're anything like me and love ice cream (I am heading to G and Ds in Oxford now, I know breaking the whole marathon diet plan...) then I recommend getting involved with this! 

Also, if anyone is heading to Soul Survivor Church in Watford on Sunday, see you there- Joel will be chatting about Freeze-AIDS at the services there.

Running Update:

Flooding has meant I have had to take some crazy routes around Oxford, but thankfully I've managed to make up the miles this week around Jericho and Iffley.

Today Zara and I ran to the gym, great until we went in the gym and they had the heaters on?!  Crazy, I know, wasn't pretty.

Next week, back to Chorleywood, hill 'training' (oh dear) and onto 9 miles. Watch this space.

Have a great weekend friends :) xx

P.s. Sorry for all the shameless plugging and links on this post, but hopefully you might be interested in getting your ice cream on!
