Story

<div>Hello Everyone,<span><br class="yui-cursor"></span></div> <div></div> <div>I hope you have all enjoyed the start of the year, I certainly have.</div> <div></div> <div>I will be running the London Marthon this year in memory of my Grandmother who sadly passed away 5 years ago.&nbsp; She was a true inspiration and always drove me to achieve the best I could especially with sport.&nbsp; I always took sport for granted as it was something I could take to naturally and enjoy without any issues.&nbsp; With this in mind, I am running the 2012 London Marathon for Calvert Trust which is a brilliant Charity who specialize in getting disabled people into sport and outdoor activities which is something that I personally think is brilliant as it offers opportunities for less fortunate people through no fault of their own access to something that is taken for granted by most people.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>I have set myself a very difficult target of running the c.26miles in 3hrs.&nbsp; My training has started well and the furthest I have run so far has been 14.6miles in 1hr49mins.&nbsp; Please stretch your donations to the limit as I will be pushing myself to the brink of collapse for a brilliant cause.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>Thank you in advance for all your support and donations.&nbsp; I will try not to let you down.&nbsp; Hopefully see a few of you on the race day.</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>Luke xx</div> <div></div> <div>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
