Story

Eighteen months ago I had an experimental hip resurfacing. Today I am training for the London Marathon and looking forward to finishing on Sunday, 3rd October with a smile and a medal. 

I am doing it for Pushkin House, the oldest independent charity dedicated to Russian culture. I have embraced Russia and its culture for many years now and want to help the charity renovate its home located in the heart of Bloomsbury, London. The more I raise the closer they will come to their dream of improving their home from where they promote and present the best of Russian culture. 

UPDATE

To give you extra incentive to donate as much as you can...I will also match whatever is raised on this page AND then another friend will match all the donations £ for £ also. That means for every £ you donate that will turn into £4 raised)))
