Story

Hi everyone,

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have taken on the ultimate challenge – to run the London Marathon in 2013 raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support! 

Having a personal connection with Macmillan and seen the fantastic work they do, I have secured a Golden Bond place, and have committed to raising a minimum of £2000. 

Macmillan Cancer Support do fabulous work in supporting people living with cancer. I would be eternally grateful if you could dig deep and donate to this fantastic cause – it will make all the early-morning runs worthwhile, especially as it’s absolutely freezing at the moment – and believe me, it’s not much fun! 

Mind you, being so cold, people think my eyes are watering – when it’s really tears after 10 miles!

I ran Greenwich's Run to the Beat half marathon on 28th October as a warm-up event  – I finished in 2 hours and 28 minutes, which I was pretty happy with!  Still managed to cry on the route when I saw my family and friends – see the awful photo on my page!

Now I have until April to work hard, pounding the pavements to double my distance...... and the thought of running 26 miles currently terrifies me!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Many thanks in advance for your generous contributions.

lots of love xxxxx
