Well despite a last minute knee injury, I managed to get round today in a creditable 4.01.22, way off my target time but it was the finishing that was more important than the time in the end.

So far i have received 391 online and a further £50, so climbing slowly towards the target....welcoming any further donations as i can honestly say today was the hardest thing ive ever done and raising money for charity, and especially a worthy cause got me round...so every penny raised was earnt !!

I ran the London Marathon today, 25th of April and wish to raise £1000 for St Michaels Hospice in Hastings. St Michaels cared for both my parents and need every penny they can to continue providing this essential service. I have previously run the Hastings Half Marathon twice for St Micheals and everyone has been very generous in donating, raising £2107 + gift aid, so I hope that you will all be able to donate again.

Please, please, please dig deep, and donate anything you can for this very special charity.

Donating through JustGiving is simple and secure. Your details are safe and you will not receive unwanted emails. Once you donate, your money is sent directly to St Michaels Hospice and JustGiving make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.

Thanks for anyting you can afford to donate...
