On April 25^th, 2010 I will be running the London Marathon for the second time to raise money for a charity called Whizz-Kidz. Last year I raised £2,648 and I'd really appreciate your support in trying to repeat or even beat that total.

Through the next weeks and months I will be pounding the roads around my home in all weather, bidding to prepare. Although I’m a runner, a marathon is still a daunting prospect for me.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Whizz-Kidz gets your money faster and, if you're a taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

I hope you'll be able to join me in supporting Whizz-Kidz, so please sponsor me now!
