Thank you for all the donations! You are all wonderful! I ran on the track for the first time in 19 years last night and did 8.5 miles this evening with a running club. Training is getting serious! And painful! A

<p>Hello everyone.</p> <p>I've always wanted to run the London marathon and doing it this way I get to raise money for a fantastic charity that a friend of mine works for. Childnet do good stuff protecting children from all kinds of nastiness on the internet so please dip deep and sponsor me. I will accept time-limited sponsorship (Tris and Caz) at a later date depending on how my training is going!</p> <p>Many thanks in advance for your donations! I will try to do my best but at my advancing years you never know when the body will give up! Aim is for under 3hrs 15mins.....</p> <p>Bring it on!</p> <p>Andy</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
