Story

Hey

So instead of just talking about it, I've decided to bite the bullet and run a marathon.  You know me, I like a challenge...

I'm going to keep this fairly brief...basically, I want your money...so cough up!!

Joking aside, I'm raising money for Learning for Life, a charity which helps children especially girls to gain an education. I've done some voluntary work for them in the past and their dedication and commitment is truly amazing.  I'm a strong believer in learning...knowledge is power! This is my opportunity to support a cause I really believe in, if you would like to help then please don't be shy, dig deep and hand over your money :)

I'm planning on running the marathon in 4 hours.  I'll send an email updating you all on my finish time.

Thank you for your support

Balbir
