I don't cry often. But if it has something to do with kids, I can weep buckets. I think of my own and how very lucky I am to have 3 happy, healthy girls (Ella 15, Georgia 8 and Alexa 4)

So when Alexa's (quite brilliant) teacher Jenny tragically lost her baby on Christmas Day just a few days before due date it had a profound effect upon me, Justine and my girls.

That's why I want to raise some money for SANDS (Stillbirth and Neonatal Death Society) http://www.uk-sands.org/

I aim to run or cycle 1000 kms in various races / training over the next 6 months... and for every 1km that I run or cycle I would like you to match that distance with £1 or $1 of your hard earned money.

Simply put ? 1000kms for £1000.

You can sponsor me for just 1km in training, or one of the various 10kms or half marathons I have signed up for or even a whole 110kms bike circuit of Singapore if you feel so inclined.

All (any) donations gratefully received.

I will sacrifice my dodgy knees if you can squeeze your purses, piggy banks and wallets please !

Sound fair enough ?

If you think you can help, then please donate whatever you can to help me reach my target.

Many Thanks
