My story

 

I bet you never thought this would happen!

I'm going to attempt to run the Great North Run in September 09, and also raise some money for a really worthwhile cause.  I measured 13.1miles in the car yesterday and rather than it inspiring me to continue training, I ended up just really scaring myself, so may need all your moral support.

I'm running for the Africa Educational Trust, who work in war torn areas of the continent to provide children and young people with access to education and training.  Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Africa Educational Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

If you dip your hands deep in your pockets and donate loads of cash, I will promise to not to become a marathon bore, and will really appreciate all the support you can give.  As an added bonus, I might even let you have a squeeze of my buns of steel, once I've completed all my training.
