Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

Ok....on my 'to do before I am 40 list' was to complete the London Marathon - I really don't think that will happen, so I have set myself a more realistic challenge - The Birmingham Half Marathon on 24th October.

Originally this was just a intended to be a personal challenge, with no sponsorship,  however  I then thought  "If I can raise a few quid whilst running 13.6 miles then it can only be a good thing right?"  Also, to make this even harder I have only given myself 2 months training.

I have chosen a charity close to my heart for obvious reasons; Brain Tumor Research. http://www.braintumourresearch.org

I myself was not aware of this fact BUT, more people under 40 die from Brain Tumors than ANY other cancer, yet cancer research is still very much under-funded in this area.

If you would like to donate I would be extremely grateful, however your best wishes and support for my challenge are also more than appreciated.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
