You’re running the what?!!

Yes, you heard that right. I am running the London Marathon this year in aid of the Dig Deep campaign for the global water crisis. 

Did you know over 40% of the world doesn’t have access to safe clean water? And 80% of their illnesses are linked to poor water and sanitation conditions? 

But what about all the constant moaning and whining about your precious knee? and the can’t run, won’t run ? and the crocodile tears? and all the woe is me? 

Look, I’m just in it for the bling, OK? By hook or by crook I’m going to reach the finish line. I’ll get my medal, a t-shirt, a certificate and support a great cause. 

I can then tick it off my bucket list and never have to turn away in shame, feeling like a fraud when people ask me if I’ve done the marathon. Everyone’s happy. What’s not to like? 

Are you just seeking attention again? Yes  but for a good reason. I need your help in raising the hard cash to help the Dig Deep campaign provide reliable access to safe, clean water in Africa for drinking, cooking, washing, watering crops and animals so it can no longer pose a risk of illness. 

Please donate generously so at least you can see me suffer for the next few months if nothing else.
