Anyone up for this one?


Recommended Posts

There's a lot been said recently about our fanbase being negative on social media and websites so here at Owlstalk we will be leading the push to show the doubters that our fans aren't all like that and can drive many positives.

As well as a number of upcoming events that we've been working on (the Big Ron Atkinson one being the first) we will be trying to work as closely as possible with John Pearson and the community team to bring fun and positive ideas and initiatives aimed at having fun, getting fit, having a good night out or just having a laugh and at the same doing a bit of fundraising for great causes (not least the SWFC community)

I want all the readers out there to read all these events as and when they're posted, take part in as many as they can/want to, and help support this push for positivity because all too often only negatives are seen online when in fact the positive people far far outnumber the trolls. So don't keep silent and help us push forward with positives!

This one's ace - you get a free Wednesday shirt if you can hit the sponsorship target (easy to achieve too) and it's a fun day where you might even get fitter too

 

 

 

Run 4 Wednesday!

Date for the diary... 23rd September 2018!

 

Run For All encourage people of all abilities to take part in the Asda Foundation Sheffield 10K.

Sheffield Wednesday Community Programme has teamed up with the charity run, to make this day extra special!

 

The first 50 people to raise £150 (and donated to the Virgin Money Giving online page) will become a Wednesday Runner.

 

What do I get?

A FREE entry to participate in the Sheffield 10K (usually £28).

A Sheffield 10K runner pack including Timer, Goody Bag and Medal.

A FREE FIRST Team Sheffield Wednesday FC football shirt.

Represent Sheffield Wednesday FC and the charitable arm in a once in a lifetime experience. 

You will get to choose to be apart of either the 'running' group (lead by John Pearson), or our 'walking' group (lead by ex-player Mick Pickering).

 

Charities

Your donations will be supporting the charitable arm of SWFC, providing training, health and education projects to the community.

You'll also be helping the amazing charity Archer Project, which provides services to the homeless and vulnerable to improve and achieve a better life.

Plus imagine it when over 50 of us rock up in our free Sheffield Wednesday shirts to do this one! Will look amazing!

I'm far too old to run now, but I've made a donation anyway.

Much appreciated mate

I'm available for any positivity coaching sessions. It's really quite amazing what a positive mindset can have upon your life. Football is no different.

 

Negativity breeds negative outcomes.

 

What you think....you become. 

 

Great work guys. My step mum is taking part. She's really done an amazing job since she started running a few years ago. She is waiting in anticipation for her shirt.

She's smashed the target! Every little helps. What she has achieved really signifies the human experience and shows what good we can all do collectively...it's inspirational. This is what it's all about for me.

 

Massive praise for everyone involved. Thank you.

 

UP THE OWLS.

I’m afraid I’d struggle to ‘Walk 4 Wednesday’ never mind run(!!) but I’ve popped a bit in the collection tin for this very good cause


Awesome thank you so much!

I'm gonna do this. Currently on holiday, Sat at a café by a lake having coffee and crepes. Internet a bit dodgy but once I get back to the house I'll set up my page and put a link on. Knowing my luck I'll take too long to get 150 quid but if that happens I'll do it anyway without the shirt etc, money will go to the same place.

Right. Back from the lake and page set up. Just realised the run is the day after my birthday, there's a sacrifice if ever I saw one.

That should be the link to my page. As I said, if I don't get the 150 before all the places go I'll still do the run and donate etc. 

 

Cheers guys, best start doing some running.

Good luck to all runners and walkers, I've already signed up for this 10k, I'm about to start fundraising myself for the Yorkshire Marathon in October, so I'll let others fundraise for this, although the free Wednesday shirt sounds tempting!

 

Hope to see you all on the course :biggrin:
