Goosey Lucy 0 Posted December 4, 2013 Dear Omleteers, My sister's OH (Robert Windard) has been selected by Runner's World magazine as a finalist in their Asics marathon challenge in the under 3 hour category. He needs all the votes he can get, if he is successful he will have the opportunity to access fantastic training and support and will get to run in the Paris marathon in 2014. I think you can vote every day, if anyone feels able to support him we'd be very grateful. Link to Runner's world voting page Thank you, Lucy x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plum 71 Posted December 5, 2013 It wouldn't let me vote again from my iPad . Very polite rejection Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goosey Lucy 0 Posted December 5, 2013 Thank you all for trying...I don't think he's going to be successful though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
surfer_chicken 0 Posted December 5, 2013 It's a shame these things often seem to be about how many people you know above other things. It makes sense in a few situations, like one of my friend's band were in a competition like this to play at a festival, as the people with the most votes have the most fans who would come and see them etc. but it doesn't really make sense in this context.
