Story

Hi everybody...just want to say thanks for all your donations. I managed to struggle around the marathon at a hip-breaking and knee popping time of 4.37.06. The crowds were amazing and I must have downed about 20 pints of lucozade (am now addicted but that's another story). Most depressing part of the marathon...getting overtaken at 25 miles by someone in a banana suit Most exciting part...having Gordon Ramsey say "well done big boy" as I was getting my legs massaged in the media tent. Anyways...donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Children's Trust gets your money faster and, if you're a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation. So please sponsor me now! Thought of the day... I must stop worrying about the 26 miles and concentrate on the 385 yards... he he
