Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This will be my first Marathon. I've never raced more than 10k before and for those of you that don't know it's a full 26.2 miles and is taking many months of dedicated training. I'm doing the hard bit and I would therefore really appreciate your support in helping me to reach my target for Amnesty International UK by donating as much as you can afford. Also, Barclays Bank will kindly match your donation pound for pound so if you donate £10, the charity will receive £20. Can't say fairer than that.

Amnesty International UK is an organisation that works to protect human rights worldwide. They stand up for humans wherever justice, freedom and truth are denied. Their spotlight areas are:

Demanding dignity, fighting poverty, International justice, abolition of the death penalty, stopping violence against women, controlling arms and supporting individuals in immediate danger as well as fighting for LGBT rights across the world.

Thank you for your support. I'm looking forward to the challenge of running the world's greatest Marathon event. Please come down on 17th April to support me.

Now I'm off to get my running shoes on.....
