Virgin London Marathon 2011 · 17 April 2011 ·

We’re the UK’s leading charity for Crohn’s and Colitis. Right now, over 500,000 people in the UK are living with a lifelong disease that many people have never heard of. We’re working to improve diagnosis and treatment; to fund research and to raise awareness.

Story

<p>I am so grateful for you taking the time to visit&nbsp;our page.</p> <p>I&nbsp;did it!!! 26.2 Miles! A very hot and tough day but loved it and thank you for the support of friends, family and customers you all got me through it, I thank you all so much. Myself &amp; Gary are now running the Great North Run so are keeping the page open in hope of raising lots more for this great cause.</p> <p>Gary, my husband&nbsp;has suffered with Colitis for&nbsp;almost 10 years and&nbsp;it is now just part of his everyday life, most days&nbsp;he can be in&nbsp;a lot of pain so it is a massive challenge for Gary to be taking part in a run when suffering with Colitis but will be a great achievement for him. We try to raise as much as we can&nbsp;&amp; are so happy to have been given the amazing opportunity to run the London Marathon &amp; Great North Run for NACC (National Association for Crohns &amp; Colitis). <br /><br /><em><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Every single penny will mean so much to both of us as it all counts in helping us raise as much as possible&nbsp;and we thank you so much for supporting us.</span></strong></em></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>Thank you so much for your support, it means so much!<br />Love <br /><em>Julie &amp; Gary</em><br />xxx</p>
