My personal message:

Thanks so much to everyone for all your kindness and generosity.  The support and encouragement I've had has been really touching.

So, I managed to get round the wind-swept course in 3 hours 49 minutes and 10 seconds!!  I'm thrilled to bits and am still on a high.  The last 5 miles were tough and there were moments when I thought I was done for.  All the kind words and good wishes were swirling around in my head and they kept me going.  Thanks so much again!  Jan xxx

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Shelter will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
