A few weeks back, the Mayor of Southwark tweeted that she had some spaces to run the London Marathon on behalf of some local charities. I then had a couple at the pub, got some dutch courage, and here I am.

I'm running the marathon for the Centre for Literacy in Primary Education. These guys help supply books to primary schools across the country who need them most, helping kids to learn using books. Their books reach approximately 3 million primary school children each year, and as an English Literature student I think it's great!

Any donation would be fantastic!
