I DID IT! 4 hours, 8 minutes and 39 seconds, woowoowoo! HUGE thanks to all who have supported me in this endeavour, I can safely say it's been the hardest physical test of my life so far! Never again...

Hello there! After successfully completing many runs over the years (see pics!) it's finally time for me to take on the London Marathon (eeek!). To date the longest run I have completed has been a half marathon (1h 51m 39s) and that almost finished me off so it's time to hit the gym and stop eating so much cheese...
I've managed to secure a place running for my favourite charity Amnesty International and would love to raise at least £1,800 for the fantastic work they do in protecting the human all over the world. Amnesty work on a lot of issues worldwide to protect individuals wherever justice, fairness, freedom and truth are denied. Priority campaigns at the moment are Stop Violence Against Women and Terrorism, Security and Human Rights. For more details on their campaigns and how to get involved check out their website;
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
Check back to this page soon for more details on my fundraising activities. Thank you very much for your support, it means a lot to me and Amnesty and I hope you can make it down on the day to support me and all the other runners taking part!
