My story

Well I did it! I am now a marathon runner and with all your support we have raised a lot of money for back up - but could always do with some more. I ran the marathon in 4hr 28 mins - but am having to do another one as at 8 miles an old injury came back to haunt me, so will do better next time!

I am raising money for The Back - Up Trust, a fantastic charity that supports people with spinal injuries. Did you know that every day 3 people will have an accident that will result in spinal injury.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Back-Up 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.

So please sponsor me now!

Thank you so much

Emily
