My story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
The marathon is over and I'd like to thank everyone who has contributed here. Sadly on the day things did not go as hoped and although until 14-15 miles in I was on course for four and a half hours which would have broken the fastest bottle world record and been a PB for me, a few nutrition/health issues put paid to those hopes and dreams.
However, let's put my few hours of pain and distress into perspective here for a moment............ My friend Alison has been undergoing treatment for cancer for much of the last year. It's meant hospitalisation, surgery and courses of chemo that have really taken their toll. Through her treatment Alison has remained incredibly strong and has also had some wonderful support from a number of organisations, so when I heard I had been awarded my running club's place in the marathon I asked her which charity she would choose to benefit from some fundraising. She said the Cambridge Cancer Help Centre which I was delighted to support and will continue the fundraising for a few more weeks. Thank you for all your support so far.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. You can also donate by text. For example to donate £2 your text should read CPCH50 £2 and be sent to 70070. Your donation will show up on this page. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate now.
