After seeing my dad run the 2012 London Marathon, I felt I was left with no choice but to run it myself - a slight problem seeing as I'd never ran a mile in my life before this. Seeing the determination and perseverance displayed by him, I have to say, I was utterly inspired. And if it weren't for him, I would not be taking up this challenge. So cheers dad for getting me into this.

My only aim is to finish the London Marathon on two feet. 

So now I have the opportunity to raise funds for an organisation close to my heart; The Countryside Alliance. Now, I ask for the support of friends and family. 

I will be so grateful for any donation. Just the support means a lot!
