<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>After many years&nbsp;finding&nbsp;reasons not to take part in the marathon, I have finally run out of excuses.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Fortunately, after being drawn&nbsp;at 37th reserve in my company ballot, a great charity like Childcare have managed to find a place for me.</p> <p>In return for their support and my place in the marathon, Childcare ask for me to raise funds to support their numerous causes.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Childcare (<a href="http://www.childcareuk.org/">www.childcareuk.org)</a>&nbsp;provides counselling for children and young adults up to the age of eighteen, regardless of their beliefs, together with their families, who could be experiencing emotional difficulties.</p> <p>My parents have supported this charity for most of my life.&nbsp; So, with my own bones beginning to creek, I think it's now time I supported this great organisation.</p> <p>Please help with anything you can.&nbsp; Every penny raised will help to motivate me to&nbsp;put the miles in&nbsp;through those horrible winter mornings.</p> <p>Thank you.</p>
