<p>PLEASE PLEASE sponsor me to run the London Marathon this year!</p> <p>Not only is this the hardest challenge I have ever set my mind to, it's also for a fantastic cause.</p> <p>I'm running for Interact Worldwide - a Sexual and Reproductive Health charity supporting vulnerable communities in Africa and Asia. We support people to gain the knowledge and services to allow them to have the choices in sexual and reproductive health that we all take for granted. I could write an essay about the desperate needs of the people we work for and the wonderful work that Interact supports, but will save you - for more information please check out our website... www.interactworldwide.org</p> <p>As for me, I've been pounding the pavements since October, braving the cold, rainy, dark nights to get the miles of training in, when in all honesty I'd far rather be curled up on the sofa. I've had endless blisters and my feet, which used to be my best feature and now they have really lost their charm.&nbsp;</p> <p>Make my pain and blisters worth it!</p> <p>Please, dig deep, your support really will make a difference</p> <p>Thank you - I will be making regular updates on facebook!!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
