Story

Updated on Oct 29th 2012 at 6:31 PM from the JustGiving API

Marathon completed, 4 hours and three minutes. Very happy with my time considering the conditions were absolutely horrendous. Thank you so much to everyone who helped me raise my target and complete the run.

To put bluntly: unless action is taken immediately, there will be no Venice for future generations. Having studied the culturally rich city for five years I now realise how important it is that we start making changes now to avoid the literal subsidence of the treasures contained in the city into the sea.

Any donations REALLY help with the training as well as Venice itself- PLEASE SPUR ME ON!!

So please, if you have ever visited Venice, or wish to, please help us to save and preserve this incredibly important city for future generations by giving a donation of any size to Venice in Peril.

Thank you.
