Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

After last year's London Marathon, I have decided that my challenge for this year will be to run 1,000 miles in 2011. This is much, much further than I have ever managed in one year. I will be averaging around 20 miles a week. Outdoor and indoor running will be allowed!

I am hoping to raise a little money for Dogs Trust by doing so. The Trust has kindly featured me on their blog

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 donate now.
