Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me:
Half of all money raised will be donated to the radiotherapy department at the derbyshire royal infirmary as a means of saying thankyou for the treatment given to a very close friend, i expect to finish the event in about four hours please consider my sore knees and blistered feet and give as much as you can.
This will be my 13th marathon(unlucky for some) the best one was New york in 2005, i have also ran in derby nottingham, edinburgh, stratford upon avon + others, not entered london yet but i promise to get there one day. My training is highly unorthodox one day i run a mile miss three weeks then do a twenty mile slog it works for me but its less than ideal, i think i'me just bloody minded.Training is going well for me currently running 2 or 3 times a week as well as cycling and martial arts, thanks to james pike for keeping me company and helping to increase the weekly miles. i will be taking part in the derby 10k on 20 april 2008. My membership of shelton striders renewed my interest in running as its a very friendly suportive club with people of mixed abilities they offer something for everyone. My running number for the marathon will be 490. Please forward this email to as many people as you know to help me raise as much money as posible.
WOW. Finished in 4.38.18 with only one blister, nice dry conditions, lots of hills to contend with. The marshalls around the course were fantastic.
Brathay Hall Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
