My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.  Last  year, I shared one of my goals with Caroline McFarlan, founder of KidsCharitiesUK www.kidscharities.org  - and the wife of one of my closest personal and business friends, the broadcaster Bill McFarlan. KidsCharitiesUK will be supporting CHAS throughout 2008. 

That goal was to run marathons in three different cities around the world by 1st January 2010, raising £20k for her charity in the process.  The first of these being the Edinburgh Marathon on the 25th May.  Like Forrest Gump I will continue running until I do it!

Four of my colleagues Dave Koziupa, Warren Stevenson, Steve Harris and Tim Sims will be joining me on the day however they get off lightly as will be running the "Hairy Haggis Relay" however all donations made will also go to CHAS

Please dig deep and sponsor me and the guys online now.

Massive thanks for your support.

Andy

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Children's Hospice Association Scotland, (CHAS) 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.
