<p>9:30pm 22/04/2012 - I am shattered!!</p>
<p>Well folks I've achieved what I set out to do all those cold, wet training nights ago and completed the London marathon. Believe it or not I actually enjoyed the <strong>WHOLE</strong> 26.2 miles (although the body is creaking a bit now). Knowing the money I have raised, with all of your generosity, will help children and young people with hemiplegia makes it all the more worth it.</p>
<p>Thank you (I would write more but I really am shattered and need to go bed!!)</p>

<p>After years of thinking I will do the London marathon next year - I have finally decided to run it this year. I probably should have tried a few 10km runs instead of throwing myself in at the deep end but there's nothing like a challenge when you turn 40!! <em>I have left it a bit late to use it as a qualifying event for the London Olympics but you never know!! </em></p>
<p>I have decided to run for a charity called <strong>HemiHelp</strong> which provides fantastic support and advice to families that have children with Hemiplegia and this is a charity close to my family.</p>
<p>The amount of time I have to reach my fund raising target, aswell as do all my training, is quite short so I need as much motivation to get me out there on those cold English mornings and evenings. Economic times are tough so I appreciate any donation you can give and I will try and keep you updated with my progress with photos and videos (if they're not too embarrassing!)</p>
<p>JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. You can donate from anywhere in the world.</p>
<p>Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p>
<p>If you can donate it would be very much appreciated - thanks for reading my story.</p>
