Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm running in the Great North Run half marathon on September 9th and am raising money for the Open Nest charity which provides post-adoption support to adoptive families. I've only run 10k before so this is quite a step up. My training was going well until I went to Greece for the last two weeks. Beaches and kebabs are not the best preparation but the atmosphere should carry me through.

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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
