UPDATE -
I have now completed the marathon, placing 2204th in 3:24:55 (net time = 3:22:58). Thank you once again to everyone who generously contributed to this great cause!
Best wishes,
David.

On 6 November I will be attempting my second marathon -- this time in New York. I will be running to raise funds for Get Kids Going, a charity which helps disabled children (and young people up to the age of 26) take part in sport.
Any donation, however big or small, makes an amazing difference to a disabled child's life. We can help provide the freedom and other opportunities, which you and I may take for granted, to these children.
A sports wheelchair costs £3,000.
A lightweight manual wheelchair is around £2,000.
And a trike is roughly £800.
So please dig deep and sponsor me. I'll do the leg-work!
Thanks very much.
David.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Get Kids Going! will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
