Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you will know, I have taken up the challenge to run a half marathon on October 14th this year.  Mainly due to peer pressure, but also as a challenge but I have taken it very seriously.  I've been training hard to take me from never even running a mile, to hopefully completing the 13.1mile course in one piece !

The race has also brought extra importance to me, as sadly my uncle passed away, all too young, of lung cancer in July this year.  Although he didnt have the opportunity to benefit from Macmillan cancer support, it was something he had asked for.  So I plan to run in his memory now, and am fortunate that as the Perkins charity of the year, every single penny I raise will be doubled - how fantastic is that ?

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Therefore, I do ask you all to dig deep and give anything you can for a really worthy cause.
