Story

Thankyou for taking the time to visit my fundraising page for the London Marathon 2011... I signed up last November, as a late entry, really wanting to participate... Now that training is a reality- forcing myself outside in these arctic conditions really is a challenge, but its too late to think about that now as April is not far away

My sister is running for children with leukaemia, and I am running for Leukaemia Care, a small UK charity that provides vital care and support to all those whose lives are affected by leukaemia. I really wanted to run on behalf of a worthy cause, and something personal too, and would like to raise as much as I can for those who work tirelessly to make the lives for those who suffer from leukaemia, so much easier. 

I am hoping to do this feat in under 4 hours, and if you are around on April 17th in London then I invite you to come and watch this 26 mile struggle.

Happy New Year to you all....
