My story

 

The last time I attempted a marathon was when I was about 22. After finishing it I said I would never do another one. 

Now some 10 years or so later I am running the Amsterdam Marathon on the 18th October 2009 and I have set myself the challenge of beating the time I did all those years ago. I am also trying to raise some money for Zoe's Place which is a children's hospice in West Derby.

I would really appreciate it if you would sponsor me either through JustGiving as described below or more simply by contacting me direct      

JustGiving has helped raise over £534m for 8,155 charities and Zoe's Place Baby's Hospice, in West Derby is one of those charities.  Zoe's Place Baby's Hospice is run completely through donations and fund raising such as this. They need to raise £600,000. per year, every year to keep doing there great work.  JustGiving have helped raise much of these needed funds, it's safe, its easy and your money will go straight to Zoe's Place Baby's Hospice, who will be very grateful for any funds you wish to donate.
