Story

Thank you to my friends and family for your tremendous support and sponsorship of my London Marathon run.  I completed the Marathon in 5 hours 25 minutes and 22 seconds.  Not the fastest time, but I finished it and had a truly memorable day.  My initial fundraising target was to raise £2010 in 2010 and you enabled me to pass this in early April and then to exceed my revised target of £100 a mile.

I have have raised £1538.63 from this site, £10 from virginmoneygiving.com, £1358.37 on sponsor forms and £478.23 in gift aid.  That's a total of £3385.23 inclusive of gift aid which works out at £10.40 a minute for my finish time or £129.21 a mile. Thank you for your support.
