Story

Hello all.

In 2009 I will be running three marathons: on March 22nd I will be running the Tokyo Marathon, on April 26th I will be running the London Marathon, and on May 31st, the Edinburgh Marathon. I am running in memory of my dear sister in law, Sue Land.

Many of you met Sue at various do's and events and will know what an amazing, fiery, strong and beautiful woman she was. She fought cancer for over six years, but devastatingly, she died on Wednesday 16th of January, 2008. 

This is my fundraising page for the Flora London Marathon and the Edinburgh Marathon, which I am running in aid of the Marsden, where Sue received treatment and care. I have chosen to run these marathons in the hope that you lot will honor my gross stupidity with donations large or small.

I am running the Tokyo Marathon in aid of the Institute for Cancer Research: please visit my other page at www.justgiving.com/kirstyhousleytokyo

So, the three marathons are just over a month apart so I have a fighting chance of recovering in time for each one. So, in memory of Sue and to help those who are suffering now, I would be so grateful for whatever you can give.

Lots of love to all. x x x
