My story

 

'Tis done, 26.2 miles of great sights and atmosphere through New York. Managed it in 3 hrs 14 mins and 52 secs, (even with all the New York girls throwing themselves at me from the sides screaming "give me your babies!")

The web site is reamaining open until the end of January, so if you have not and would not mind, please make a donation so that I can raise as much money as possible for St Mary's School in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

As before my old school Ampleforth College is kindly going to act as the Registered Charity, in order to collect the funds and then pass onto St Marys.

Therefore please, dig deep in order to support this cause.  I know that if people, like me had been able to look upon the bright and stunning faces of the children at the school, so full of life and hope, yet at the same time knowing that due to Ethiopia's difficulties, it is inevitable that some of those children will be afflicted by AIDS, other disease, poverty and never be able to fufil that great promise that lies there initally; they would not hesitate to be moved to act.

So please help me to help those children at the school, who form that crucial elemant, if Ethiopia is to escape its cycle of woes and secure a better future.

Very best wishes,

James (the legs are now even skinnier and feeling rather sore)
