Story

<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</span></span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">In just 3 days, between 31st March and 2nd April 2011, myself and 6 others are running from Leeds to Liverpool along the route of the longest canal in the UK - the Leeds and Liverpool canal.</span></span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">Starting at Leeds and running through Bingley, Skipton, Nelson, Burnley, Blackburn, Wigan, Burscough and ending at the Albert Dock, in Liverpool, it is 127 miles in length.&nbsp;</span></span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">The load is being shared and my contribution is two 10 mile sections on consecutive days. Having never even run a 10k race before, this is quite a personal challenge, but as the saying goes - its all in a good cause.</span></span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">We're raising money for the&nbsp;</span></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology and any contribution that you are able to make, regardless of how small, would be very much appreciated.</span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
