Story
One November morning last year I woke with a sore head after a late night out entertaining a client. Whilst delicately sipping my coffee at 6:00 my elder sister called to tell me that she had secured me a place to run the London Marathon. This was news to me as I had no prior knowledge that she was trying to get me a place and neither had I ever expressed a desire to do it! However, our relationship has always been one in which I do as I am told (particularly when weakened with a hangover) and so in 3 weeks time, I will be joining thousands of other people running just over 26 miles.
Coram are my marathon sponsors and I have a target of £1500 to raise. Coram is a fantastic charity. It works with vulnerable children and young people, aiming to transform their lives through practical help and support (see http://www.coram.org.uk).
