Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

I`m running the Virgin London Marathon on the 25th April 2010  - giving me 165 days to get from 0 to 26.2 miles!!!

 

As you know, previously my attitude to running has been -  only run when chased !!!

And I`m not exactly the fitness guru as you may also know !

 

However, I`ve stopped smoking and I`ve been given an amazing opportunity to run next year and raise a minimum £3000 for the charity CORE www.corecharity.org.uk

 

CORE is a charity which funds about £1 million per year into research into ALL and ANY digestive disorder.

Its also provides information for sufferers, families and friends as well as increasing the public awareness of the symptoms of digestive disease.

  

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. 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.

 

So please dig deep and support me by donating now.
