Three LEGOLANDers are attempting to run a ridiculous distance all in aid of charity. Not something that any of us have done before - we were inspired to sign up as a direct result of , who managed 43 marathons in 51 days. We'll start off by doing half a marathon in half a day - and see how it goes.

We are running for two charities, and this is the page for Merlin's Magic Wand. Our other charity is Marie Curie Cancer Care, and you can donate to them by clicking here - www.justgiving.com/gaines2. Information on both charities can be found on their respective pages, on the left hand side.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep, any donations are gratefully received!!!
