My story

Dear Friends,

For those of you who needed visual proof, including my supporters who made it up to London but didn't get to see me until the end, here I am in my post-Marathon euphoria.

Thank you for all your support. £2,000 and rising... that's fantastic!

And yes, I would do it again.

Previous message: Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I hope you’ll support me in my 2009 challenge: to run the London Marathon (my first) in under 4:30 and, in the process, to raise over £2,000 for Action for M.E. Why this charity? Two very dear friends of mine were diagnosed with this illness and I now understand the devastating effect it can have on the lives of people who have it and also those close to them. For more information, check out the Action for M.E. website at www.afme.org.uk

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Action for M.E. 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.

Thank you so much for your support.
