I did it, I ran The London Marathon - all 26.2 miles of it.......aarrgghh  !!!!!!!!  It took me 5 hours 36 minutes.  It has to be the hardest thing I have ever done.

The crowd were excellent and kept me going by shouting my name.  All the way round all I could hear was "well done Sarah" and "keep going Sarah" .  That really helped to spurr me on especially towards the end.

I ran to raise money for the Blue Cross Animal Charity to support them with the excellent work they do with animals.

So now I need to collect all my pledges and this is the easiest way to donate and sponsor me as your money goes straight to the Blue Cross without me hassling you for it !!!

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.
