Story

Thank you for taking time to visit my page for the Flora London Marathon which I will be running for Mecap on 13th April 2008.

It is easy to take sponsoring lightly as there are several requests to all of us each year, but I would ask that you just take a few moments to stop, sit down, and realise the difference you are able to make.  How much do you want to make a difference? Then help me to help Mencap

I am taking the run seriously and began training in Oct/Nov 2007.  Since then I have paced hundreds of miles in Windsor Great Park, completed the Maidenhead Easter 10 mile road race and 3 Half-Marathons - and I still have a way to go

Unfortunately I am not built for this distance and it has been real hard but I really just want to help Mencap.  Whatever time, however much it hurts, I will finish to help those less fortunate.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor : Mencap 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, please sponsor me and help make a difference.

Many, many thanks for your support.
