Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
So with 4 days to go and with my racing number in hand it is official… on Sunday morning I will be pounding the streets of London (26.2 miles of them!) and taking part in this year’s London Marathon.
I had thought my marathon running trainers were to remain a distant memory but after attending a fundraising event for the charity Maggie’s I had the urge to dust them off and support the invaluable charity by running the 2017 London marathon. So here we are, thank you to everyone for their support so far, training has gone well and who knows I may just be able to beat my previous time of 4 hrs 14 mins….!
Maggie’s is a charity that is there for anyone and everyone affected by cancer, offering a programme of support that has been shown to strengthen physical and emotional wellbeing. Maggie’s Centres are warm and welcoming places built alongside NHS hospitals that provide the emotional, practical and social support that people with cancer and their family and friends need.
I have been given the opportunity to allocate the funds I raise towards the new Maggie’s Centre in Southampton, it will be a pleasure to run on Sunday with the knowledge that I am helping to contribute to a very special place.
Your donations will make such a difference and I thank you in advance for your support.
Love, Sarah x
