Monday 22nd September update...marathon was completed in 4 hrs 23 mins, turned out to be a bit of a struggle in the 2nd half of the race but at least my Scottish tan was topped up in the 23 degree heat, tho at the minute i'm struggling to walk....joy.

Many thanks to all who sponsored me, including Gift Aid i've managed to raise over £1000 for Sick Kids with your help so this more than compensates for my sore legs, hope to catch up with you all in Scotland soon!!!

For those who still wish to donate, this can be done up until 21st December.

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I'm all set to run the Sydney Marathon or at least attempt to on September 21st 2008 to raise money for Edinburgh Sick Kids Friends Foundation.

My target for the day is to make it round in one piece and also to finish in under 4 hours, obstacles that may come into play are the fact that I have not run further than 10 miles and also my nephew Conor saying that he is gonna trip me up!

I hope to have gained inspiration from Team GB in Beijing and who knows London 2012 could just be on.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Edinburgh Sick Kids Friends Foundation 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.

So please sponsor me now! Many thanks.
