<p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Firstly, Thank you visiting my Just Giving Site. Many of you will know that participating in the London Marathon has long been an ambition of mine to realise when I reach the ripe old age of 30, having hung up the old football boots.</span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: small;">I will be raising money for the Scleroderma Society. </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Running for the society not only helps me to realise a personal ambition but allows me the opportunity to raise money for a cause that is close to the heart of my family. </span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">My Auntie Margaret, having been diagnosed with Scleroderma in 2008 (a rare and incurable skin &amp; auto immune disorder), has been committed to raising awareness and supporting other people with the condition. She is a very strong and inspiring woman and I was honoured when Mags asked if I would run on behalf of the charity.</span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">All the pain and hardships of training and finally running the marathon are non-comparable to the symptoms and effects of Scleroderma, so by sponsoring me I will promise there will no whinging, no moaning and certainly no slacking off in the 4 months of preparation.</span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Thank you in advance for your kind donation, see you on the finish line,</span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Peace, love and Godspeed</span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Ally YES</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span></p>
