Story

<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>UPDATE 27/04/2012</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Wow - look what we have all achieved!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;">THANKYOU to everyone so generous to donate and sponsor my marathon run!&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;">SO thrilled to have SO beaten my &pound; target AND managed to finish in 04:25:11 superb</span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"> AND I DIDNT WALK A SINGLE STEP!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;">On behalf of my nephew Adam and ALL the children at Corbets Tey</span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;">THANK YOU xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx</span></p> <p>Never guess what? I have only won a ballot place for the 2012 London Marathon!&nbsp;I ran the 2011 London Marathon with a charity place for VICTA - what an experience. <strong>I didn't walk a step </strong>(but you probably already know that !) and completed it in a fairly respectable 4hrs 54 mins and 54 secs.</p> <p>As the world's biggest charity fund raising event it would be <strong>SO</strong> wrong (although much easier) to just take the place, train and not bother to ask for sponsorship, particularly since so many of you have already sponsored me this year.</p> <p><strong>BUT </strong>my nephew Adam attends the Corbets Tey school and I want to raise some money for them. The school specifically helps children with complex learning needs. Despite Adam's autism and cerebral palsy at Corbets Tey he is being helped to become the very best he can be. Schools like this <strong>NEED</strong> our help</p> <p><strong>So </strong>please dig deep.&nbsp;Donating through JustGiving is totally secure.
