Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page; as you probably know by this point, in August 2012 I will be climbing Mt Kilimanjaro to help raise money for the charity Dig Deep (more on them below). To secure a place I must raise &pound;1250 so I need your help! The trip cost will be covered by myself so 100% of the money you donate will go straight to the charity.</p> <p>Just so you feel like you're getting value for money&nbsp;(and also to help me train), from September I have been running one marathon every month. That's 11 marathons before the climb!</p> <p>I will be starting off gently with two half marathons in September (Bristol and Cheltenham) and then moving on to full marathons from October onwards. The lineup is as follows:</p> <p>October - Dartmoor Vale Marathon</p> <p>November - EnduranceLife Gower Marathon</p> <p>December - EnduranceLife Dorset Marathon</p> <p>January - Gloucester Marathon</p> <p>February - Cotswold Marathon</p> <p>March - Duchy Marathon</p> <p>April - EnduranceLife Exmoor Marathon</p> <p>May - Neolithic Marathon</p> <p>June - Cheltenham Circular Challenge</p> <p>July - Ironman!</p> <p>August - Mt. Kilimanjaro!</p> <p>Any contribution, no matter how much, will be greatly appreciated both by our team and by Dig Deep.</p> <p><span style="color: #1c1c1c; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Dig Deep works to provide sustainable solutions to problems faced everyday by communities in Kenya. They are focused on delivering renewable energy projects to provide water, cooking gas and electricity to those who need it most thus providing direct and indirect benefits to the whole community and the surrounding environment.</span></p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now!</p>
