Hi, Many Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page..

As i approach my 40th Birthday i decided i would finally train for and try to complete a Marathon. Having entered the New Forest Marathon on 26/09/10 and in committing myself to over 650 miles of training i then decided to make it all the more worthwhile by asking friends and family to sponsor me for a very worthy cause.

Having discussed this with my family we decided that i would run and raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation UK. Make-A-Wish grants magical wishes to children and young people fighting life-threatening illnesses.

At any given time, over 20,000 children in the UK are living with life-threatening conditions and every one of these children deserves to experience the magic of a Make-A-Wish wish. In 2010, over 1000 children will turn to Make-A-Wish to have their wish granted and in order to do this they need to raise £5 million pounds this year.

Your support is very important to me and the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Thanks again

Mark
