Virgin London Marathon 2013 · 21 April 2013 ·

We’re ZSL, an international conservation charity, and our vision is a world where wildlife thrives. We’re working every day to achieve this, through our science, our field conservation around the world and engaging millions of people through our two Zoos, ZSL London Zoo and ZSL Whipsnade Zoo.

Story

Hello,

Thank you for visiting my page.

I am running the London Marathon for ZSL living conservation. Naturally, as a London Zoo mega fan, when the opportunity arose to apply to run for this fantastic charity I jumped at the chance.  And then once realising the full scale of what I had just signed up for I realised what an enormous challenge this is for me. I am definitely not a natural at running, more of a tortoise than a cheetah, however I am training really hard and I aim to run the whole way in under 4.5 hours.

ZSL is a fantastic charity and I would really like you to sponsor me to support them. Their mission is to promote and achieve worldwide conservation for animals and their habitats. They run conservation projects in over 50 countries around the world. By working with governments, civil society and the private sector they are able to create large-scale long term changes. 

Any amount of sponsor money is absolutely fantastic, I am so grateful for any money you can spare.

To all of you who are supporting, whether it is through sponsorship, fund raising or coming on my runs THANK YOU so much, I couldn’t do it with out you!

See you soon,

Ellen
