Monthly Vital Statistics - May

Charity fund as at end of 31st May

 Here, with the most important figure first, are the stats for May :

CHARITY FUND TOTAL AT 31st MAY  -  £351.00

TRAINING MILES COMPLETED IN MAY  -  98 miles

TOTAL MILES TRAINING TO DATE  -  240 miles

NUMBER OF VIEWS OF THIS BLOG  -  4,044

NUMBER OF FACEBOOK 'LIKES' -  338

The most improved figure through May has been the amount of views of this blog. Up by 993 views, which is amazing.

Facebook 'likes' continue to rise. Up by 47 since the end of April and rising slowly all the time, and that's without much focus on trying to increase the figure. Thanks for keeping sharing the links folks. 400 'likes' by the end of June is quite possible, with 500 before I actually do the full 2 day journey being the goal.

The weather has helped me get out to do another 47 more training miles than last month, 98 miles in total during the month, keeping on target and moving in the right direction. Hopefully that will continue to build during June.

Thanks to all who have donated to the charity fund or contibuted support to The Long Push so far however, the charity fund only grew by £5 last month. Clearly, this has to be my focus from here on in, generating donations to the charity fund. Especially as Just Giving charge FAMILIES CONNECTED £15 per month to maintain the www.justgiving.com/TheLongPush page. So, with this in mind, I'll be writing a specific FUNDRAISING post very soon, with detailing all the work being done by myself and others to try and generate donations and with some ideas of ways that people can help generate donations in these tough financial times.

Thanks,

Chris
