Story

<p>Hey hey to you all</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>This year on Sunday April 17th, I had a great opportunity to run in the London Marathon and raise money for the YMCA England and YMCA Norfolk.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>A HUGE THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR SPONSORS AND SUPPORT.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>To run 26.2 miles was a big challenge, but so worth it knowing that it was&nbsp;for a great cause which i 100% believe in.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I have worked for the YMCA for a few years in local high schools, and am constantly seeing what an incredible job the YMCA&nbsp;do in helping young people from all backgrounds, challenges and lifestyles, helping&nbsp;them back on track and helping them to reach their full potential.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I currently work for the YMCA Norfolk (Norwich), in a local High School Academy, alongside students supporting teenages who face tough challenges and issues that so many of us can sometimes be unaware of.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>This&nbsp;was such a great opportunity for me to raise money for a charity, both YMCA England and YMCA Norfolk who are doing an amazing job, reaching out beyond themselves and always going the extra mile for others.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>If you&nbsp;still wasnt&nbsp;to sponsor me it would be appreciated so much by myself and everyone who works for or is helped by the YMCA.&nbsp;Even if its just &pound;1, every pound really does make a difference.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>You can help make a difference by sponsoring me through my Just Giving page <a href="http://www.justgiving.com/TimLee2011"><span style="color: #800080;">www.justgiving.com/TimLee2011</span></a>&nbsp;or if you see me I do have a form for sposorship.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you so much for taking time to read this, and to those of you who have been able to sponsor me.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>PS: Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
