I DID IT!! I finished this year's London Marathon in 5 hours 13 minutes, not my quickest but certainly my toughest. I started off well and ran the first half in just under two hours, however, at mile 16 it all went wrong and I so wanted to give up. I was fighting a tummy bug that Toby had been suffering from. With the support of the crowds I fought on through the rain and hail to finally creep over the finish line. In 2003 I was lucky enough to fulfill my dream of running the London Marathon by being given a charity place, at the end I said 'Never again'! However, I have been hooked on running ever since. Each year I have made my entry to the London Marathon and was rather surprised when in December 2007 I received an acceptance. As the other sport I enjoy very much is skiing, I have chosen to raise funds for Disability Snowport. Having taken a break from running to enjoy some skiing prior to the Marathon, I have lost count of the number of people that I have seen, still enjoying skiing but using specially adapted equipment. With your help I would like to help Disabilty Snowsport buy some more of this equipment to help more people enjoy sport in the mountains. Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Disability Snowsport UK - The Skiers and Boarders Charity will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
