After nearly giving up a year of my life to devote time to training, I conquered the London Marathon!

I crawled across in 6 hours 47 minutes, mainly due to hopping on one leg for the last 7 miles which took me 2 hours as I blew my knee out. That still wasn't going to let me not finish the damn course!

It is still not too late to donate. 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.

So please dig deep and donate now.
