    What I am doing ------

 

On Sunday 4th September 2011-

 

I will be running a 1/2 Marathon in the Bank of Scotland, Great Scottish Run, from George Square, Glasgow, to raise funds for Border Collie Rescue.

My entry number is 30651798.

I started running a year ago after I decided to go on a diet
and with the help of the diet, and running with my dogs, I have now lost just
over 6 stone in a year. I am getting so much of a buzz out of running with the dogs that my plan for next year is to complete a full marathon.
 

Come and cheer me on!

Better still - sponsor me and help the BCR dogs.

I'm doing this for Border Collie Rescue because....

 

I was brought up on a farm in the Trough of Bowland and have been surrounded by BC's since I was born. I had a working brown & white BC as a companion from the age of 8.

 

Dave (my husband) got his first dog when he left home and got his own house (his mother wouldn't have a dog in the house, she was into cats). His dog was a B&W working BC bitch.


Since we got married, even when we had a Collie/Greyhound cross (Lurcher) we have always had at least one BC in the household, usually two.

I think too many people take on a Border Collie because they are cute, but they are also the most intelligent dog Breed.

 

In a lot of cases it turns out that the dog is more intelligent than the owner and as such the owner thinks the dog is the problem and either abandons it or dumps it on a charity like Border Collie Rescue.

 

As a pair of BC lovers we could not think of a better cause to raise a few bob for whilst I enjoy my run.

 

   
  Total raised £324.01

Many thanks to Elisabeth, and her husband Dave, for all their work in raising funds for our cause.
