Hello all you wonderful people, thank you for taking a couple of minutes to have a look at what im doing for an amazing charity.

Yes........ old exercise phobe here is running the London Marathon! It all started last year when keeping skinny started getting hard, I took up running and well...... I fell in Love. Having since done Bristol half marathon and Bideford 10 miler its now time for my next challenge, the London Marathon!!!!! Sitting here writing this I still cant believe it.

I chose the FSID mainly because I have raised money for this wonderful cause before back in 2006 when I went to Africa as part of a trip they were doing. I got to spend some time in a remote area of Ghana helping create a safe medical environment for young children and babies, many of which were suffering from aids, hiv and may other life threatening diseases.

Having my own baby niece has taught me how precious little people are and anything to keep them safe and well in my books is worth every penny I will raise and every mile I will run. Please PLEASE give generously. Thank you xxxx
