Dear Sponsor,

It is the time of year again in which new year resolutions have been made and people are trying to fulfil them. Mine, in addition to cut down on the alcohol and live life healthier, is to raise money for YoungMinds by running the London Marathon which I enjoyed a lot last year (see picture).

YoungMinds is a UK based charity which is committed to improve the mental health of babies, children and young adults. Mental health means much more than just the absence of mental illness, it is about the physical and emotional well-being, about having the strength and capacity to live a full and creative life, and also the flexibility to deal with its ups and downs. Visit www.youngminds.org.uk for more information.

Please dig deep in your pockets and sponsor me. I promise to run as fast as I can to be below 4 hours in my third marathon.

Thank you,

Maren
