Story

I'm running the London Marathon 2008 ...26miles of psychological battle and physical torment....and fantasising about the drink and chocolate I can indulge in afterwards....!!!!

Actually I'm pretty excited about it and have been training hard. I have been lucky (!) enough to have secured a place in the Flora London Marathon via Action on Pre-eclampsia.  It has been a personal ambition of mine to run the marathon a second time and to raise money for charity whilst doing it & here I am so thanks for visiting my fundraising page. 

Preeclampsia is a disorder that occurs only during pregnancy and the postpartum period and affects both the mother and the unborn baby. Affecting at least 5-8% of all pregnancies, it is a rapidly progressive condition characterized by high blood pressure.


Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Action on Pre-Eclampsia 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.
