Welcome to my fundraising page for the London Virgin Marathon - I think that's worded correctly...

Those that are aware of my sporting exploits will know that this is not my first marathon nor will it be my last.  But it is my first (and maybe last) London Marathon and certainly the first time that I've voluntarily (at the time of writing) submitted myself to a £1,500 deficit with no return!

No return?  Well that's not exactly correct, what price can you put on the improvement of life of those less fortunate than ourselves.  Those that do not have the blessing to take everyday for granted as the majority of us do.

I think you'll agree, that whilst there are many worthwhile charities around that equally deserve our support, a lack of freedom and participation throughout childhood is something we'd all love to eradicate from this world.

April 17th 2011 will see me run those famed traffic-ridden 26.2 miles on behalf of Phab Kids.

So I'm hoping that you'll be 'Phab Kids' and donate generously to the plight of these brave young people.

If it were still a Flora sponsored event, one might suggest that you 'spread' the word...but as it's now a Virgin sponsored date, it only leaves me to suggest that you, well...'spread' the love.

I thank you for your time and contribution.
