Story

<p>Welcome to my Justgiving page.</p> <p>May the best tasting bottle win!!!!</p> <p>It will be a 3 bottle race at the Virgin London Marathon!!!</p> <p>This April I am going to run the London Marathon dressed as a beer bottle to get my name in the Guinness Book of Records.&nbsp;</p> <p>Under the prestigeous title....&nbsp; Fastest Marathon dressed as a bottle - male</p> <p>Although it may not be THAT easy...&nbsp; I will be going against a Fullers London Pride Bottle and a Lucozade Bottle.&nbsp;</p> <p>In my quest for bottle domination I have temed up with the Hook Norton Brewery in England to raise money for Leukemia and Lymphoma research.&nbsp; My goal is to raise as much money as possible for this very worthy cause.</p> <p>There is currently no record holder in the male category and with your help the title could go to me.</p> <p>The great people at the Leukemia and Lymphoma research foundation have provided me a spot in the marathon.&nbsp; I in turn have promised to raise money for them.</p> <p>With your donation we can help to find a cure for blood cancer and hopefully put my name in the record book.</p> <p>My inspiration for this was reading Gill Begnor's story.&nbsp; She raised a ton of money for a great charity, ran the London marathon twice and is now the fastest woman to run a marathon dressed as a bottle.</p> <p>I am certain that I can put the Hooky Pint in the record books a second time!!&nbsp;</p> <p>Cheers!
