Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.

It is two years since I took leave of my senses and completed my first marathon.  And although between finishing the 2007 event and the 2nd January this year I only completed a grand total of 6.5 miles, training has picked up somewhat since then.

So glad that the evenings are lighter now, plus now that I am in the taper my legs don't hurt all the time.

Hoping for a cool day on the 26th - perhaps with a little light rain thrown in.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: British Red Cross gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation - easier than quantative easing [printing money]!

So please sponsor me now!
