Story

Welcome to my fundraising page for the 2008 Flora London Marathon. 

Unusually I've decided to ask for sponsorship after the event.  During training I picked up a calf muscle injury which I thought would prevent me finishing, so it seemed unfair to ask for sponsorship. 

In fact (as you can see) I did finish (just) in 3 hours 35 minutes and a number of people have asked if they could sponsor me so here is my page. 

I've decided to seek sponsorship for Actionaid.  This is a charity I regularly contribute to myself and feel a small contribution can make a massive difference by helping Actionaid to work with communities in lesser developed countries to help enable them to throw off poverty.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: ActionAid 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.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
