My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

I'm running from north SCOTLAND to the SAHARA desert starting November 2010. That'll be 100 marathons in less than 85 days, over 30 miles a day with no days off. A number of my friends will also be running parts, and raising money also. I'll jog up a few mountains and do some stuff on the way. I have done a fair bit of running before, but this will be very tough. It'll be worth it though, having seen at first hand the amazing work that the Yamaa trust is doing in Mongolia. Every penny raised goes to the Yamaa trust, and every penny goes a long way. 

That's the main event, but i'll also be doing several other ultramarathons and climbs this year.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.  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. 

 Please dig deep and donate now, and tell your friends if you can, it 's much appreciated.
