2009 BUPA GREATER MANCHESTER RUN

May 20, 2009

Another successful year for Sarah and her Great Manchester run!

The BUPA Greater Manchester 10k Run took place on Sunday 17th May around Manchester city centre. As always, Sarah is offering the sponsorship raised to Starfish, to help us in accomplishing our goals. To sponsor her is easy: please visit her Website here : Sarah is available to answer any questions regarding that or the race.

Here are the first photos she sent on to us, with her own comments. And her own big heart too!

2008 BUPA GREATER MANCHESTER RUN

Also this year, Sarah successfully completed the Great Manchester run which was also televised on BBC!!

As usual, sweet Sarah is donating her sponsorship money to Starfish for the ''Tanzania project'' and the Muhimbili Hospital in Dar es Salaam. We are helping them to integrate some additional needs, and you can find further info by visiting our relevant Muhimbili Hospital page (see the 2008 Update section).

Sarah dedicated her participation to Mike Psciuk, who passed away on March 3 after a brave fight against illness. Mike was a regular guest in Rutger's website and his writings were an infinite pleasure for all of us to read. Over the years, Mike had gathered around him many cyberfriends who had the luck to enjoy his lovely wit and unmatched humour.


Mike always referred to himself as 'a Scottish writer living, not in the highlands of Scotland, but in the highlands of northern Thailand'.

On Sarah's website (http://sarahstracks.mysite.orange.co.uk/) you will find all additional info about her Run, but herebelow are her 'visual' diaries, that nicely tell us how it all went...

Sarah's ''warming-up wigglewalk''video...

and her pre-run joy!..

And, after 1 hour and 33 minutes... Sarah's satisfaction!..

Thank you Sarah for having given once again such a warm and dedicated support!

2007 LIVERPOOL WOMEN'S 10 KM RUN

In 2007 Sarah succeeded in raising Euro245 for the ''Tanzania project'' and the Muhimbili Hospital in Dar es Salaam to support HIV-positive mothers and children stricken by this terrible virus.
All of us at 'Starfish', the Muhimbili Hospital staff, and all those children and mothers, are extremely grateful to Sarah for this additional support from her.
Herebelow you will find some photos that Sarah sent us. They perfectly show how her heartfelt dedication is making a
big difference.

Thank you Sarah!

2006 BUPA GREAT MANCHESTER RUN

Sarah brilliantly gathered Euro237 from her sponsorship support. We are donating this amount (rounding the figure to Euro500) to help the Muhimbili Hospital in Dar es Salaam (Tanzania) and Mr Haverkamp and his staff's efforts to constantly support HIV-positive mothers and children.

Mr Haverkamp asked us to sincerely thank Sarah and all the people and donors who have helped us in this effort.
