Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Target was reached on a very hot and sunny day - 2hrs 58min 58 sec and it was certainly hard work!!! http://results.london-marathon.co.uk/2005/list.php

Overall position of 1023 out of 46,000, position (age group) 438. As some have pointed out I was royally beaten by 60 women :-)

Dans Fund for Burns is a worthy charity, more information can be found on http://www.dansfundforburns.org

Why this charity and not another? - I knew Dan during my time with the HAC where we both played Rugby for the HAC team. The tragic loss puts life in perspective and any money raised will be put to good use. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Dan's Fund For Burns will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you. So please sponsor me now! Many thanks for your support. Matt
