Story
I would like to THANK all those that have sponsored me so far! I am very grateful. the training is going well and with only days to go, it is now becoming very exciting!!!
I thought I would just give an idea of what your donations are doing to help WaterAid work:
£5 could pay for a bag of cement to build a latrine slab in Ghana
£15 is enough to give one person a lasting supply of safe water, sanitation and hygiene education
£25 could pay for a mason to protect a spring in Uganda
£50 is enough for two days of hygiene education training in a village in Tanzania
I have recently run two races:
MK Half Marathon with a finish time of 2hrs 20mins
and
Kingston Breakfast Run (16miles) with a finish time of 2hrs 51mins
Thanks again!

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
After years of doing nothing, I started running and I am now taking part in:
The LONDON MARATHON!!!!
Yes, you are as surprised as I am, but this is no April Fool's joke.
However, I need your help! All of this effort and endurance needs to go to a good cause:
WaterAid
Safe water and sanitation close to people's homes have far reaching and wide ranging benefits which extend way beyond the expected improvements to health and the reduction in time spent collecting water.
Their projects enable WaterAid and its partners use practical solutions to provide safe water, effective sanitation and hygiene education to the world's poorest people, enabling communities to achieve a better quality of life and escape the spiral of poverty.
