Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: small;">I am running the Bradford Half Marathon on Sunday the 2nd of October 2011. This will be the second time that I have run this very challenging course. My goal is to beat&nbsp;last year&rsquo;s time of 2hr 45 mins. This race is one of the hardest routes for a half marathon and I really struggled last year and I know that I am also going to really find it difficult again. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: small;">This year&nbsp;I am raising money for the Fire Fighters Charity. This is an excellent&nbsp;charity and I hope that you will all support me in raising money for this worthwhile cause.</span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Firefighter's Charity - </span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; overflow: hidden; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: small;">Every 30 seconds in the UK fire fighters are called to an incident, risking their lives to save others, but sadly they often sustain physical injuries whilst carrying out their duties. The Fire Fighters Charity is here for fire fighters during their times of need. The Charity offers vital support services across the UK for all fire fighters, assisting in excess of 17,500 individuals every year</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p> </p>
