Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I'm pleased to say that on the big day, I made it round the course in four hours and thirty two minutes. It was hot and hard, but I had tremendous support from the crowd and from fellow runners along the way.

This was my fifth London marathon. I ran in the first one in 1981, but this was absolutely, positively the last!

As you can see below I've been helped enormously by all the donations and pledges people have made over the past couple of months. If you'd like to add your name to the list, you are more than welcome - there's still plenty of time.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Bees for Development Trust 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. Best wishes, Bill Turnbull PS For more info about this charity, go to this link: www.beesfordevelopment.org
