Not one to be defeated by the disappointment of having to drop out at the last minute last year with a bout of mad calf disease, I am now more determined than ever to make it to the start line this year.

 

The Virgin London Marathon takes place on Sunday 25th April 2010 and I will be lining up alongside some elite atheletes and plenty of like minded, well intentioned fun runners, not to mention a few funky chickens and the odd super hero.

 

I've chosen to run for the NSPCC and would be really grateful if you could make a donation for this superb cause. Any amount no matter how small will all help and your contribution will be very much appreciated.

 

Hello. I'm raising money for National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children and I'd really appreciate your support. It's easy and secure to donate online by credit or debit card - just go to my JustGiving page: http://www.justgiving.com/Mark-Sharpe JustGiving sends your donation straight to National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children and automatically reclaims Gift Aid if you're a UK taxpayer, so your donation is worth even more. I hope you'll join me in supporting National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.

 

Thank you.
