Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page

Over the last couple of years, Ive been running my half marathons... So, why not take it on another level and take on the greatest marathons of them all - London Marathon 2014.

Besides the distance, you may know that during my last attempted marathon I ended up with a stress fracture of my tibia.  This means my training is going to be challenging, as well as the race itself.  

However, running for I CAN and raising money from YOU lot will make it all worth it.  I CAN is a children's communication charity whose mission is that no child should be left out or left behind because of a difficulty speaking or understanding. For more info, have a look at their website www.ican.org.uk

Yes, it's a lesser known charity than all the animal ones i have previously chosen, or the cancer/dementia ones, but that's why your donations are even more valuable and meaningful. 

So, my training programme starts now... As does my fundraising bid - it's quite simple - the quicker you all donate just a little, then my target will be reached and the pestering will stop.

C'mon you know you want to!

Thanks everyone - it means a lot!

Nicola
