Harriet Crosby is raising money for Cancer Research UK
Story
Thanks for coming to my page to sponsor me for the London Marathon.
As you know 2008 has been a difficult year for me - to put it mildly!! However, having been given the all clear in September and amazed my consultants along the way with my tenacity and determination to get better I decided to put those skills to work in a different direction!! It was time to give something back by raising funds for Cancer Research - without whom the prognosis for me would have been so much worse. If beating cancer isn't enough of a personal challenge I decided to set myself another (almost more daunting!!) challenge that of running 26.2 miles!! I am 40 in 2009 and felt that if ever there was a year to run the Flora London Marathon this would be it.
The picture on the left is one of my favourites of Thea and Rosie and it is one that I kept in my head and in my heart all through treatment and it is for them that I fought cancer and for them that I run the London Marathon - to show them that anything is possible if you want it enough.
I have received overwhelming support, love, prayers etc throughout this difficult time and I ask that you support me once more by sponsoring me in this huge undertaking.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Cancer Research UK gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid is reclaimed.
Thank you very, very much
