My story

42.195 kilometres is a long way to run. I'm doing it partly for the challenge, partly because I like running, and partly to raise money for RAPt, which is where you come in.

RAPt is an extraordinary charity. They don't help cute kids or fluffy animals. They help people with addiction problems. They are committed to preventing crime and destructive behaviour, and helping people reach their potential. As well as other services, they are the largest provider of intensive drug treatment programmes in prisons. You can read more about their work here: http://www.rapt.org.uk/    and read more about the efficacy of their interventions herehttp://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2011/may/11/abstinence-based-approach-prisoners-drug-addiction?INTCMP=SRCH



 

Please give what you can :)

Many thanks to everyone who donated! I finished in just over 4 hours having thoroughly enjoyed the day. My legs are now working as they should once again and I'm wondering what to do next...
