My story

A massive thank you to everyone who has donated so far. Yes, I DID manage to finish the London Marathon and I can now add Brighton to the list. Despite a fairly troublesome foot injury I hobbled over the line faster than last year, finishing Brighton just a few mins over 5.5 hours. I had hoped to do it a bit quicker but the foot totally packed up and there's always next time.  

Special thanks to clients Sally & Gary Bowyer/Brunel Franklin, Verlinde and Oxley & Coward Solicitors LLP who entered into the spirit with donations that were truly beyond the call of duty for the London Marathon.

Every pound helps, so whether you donated £5, £50, £100 or whatever, I realise that it's a big ask, especially in the current climate, so thanks a mill to you all.
