All money raised goes direct to the orphanage to help them provide care for hundreds of children. And every penny counts. So please join in and support them as much as you can.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Pattaya Orphanage Trust 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 sponsor me now and put some smiles on some little Thai faces!Many thanks for your support.

Three Hours, 56 Minutes, 37 Seconds!

Thank you, thank you to everyone who has sponsored the run and helped make this possible. Without the support, good wishes and encouragement of so many people I doubt I would have been able to get round that course. Thank you so much.

And thank you on behalf of the Pattaya Orphanage Trust. You've done a good thing by raising so much money for such a good cause. Thank you. And congratulations to you.

It's not too late to donate if you'd still like to. Anything you can afford would be very much appreciated.

Thank you.

Blinded by a car on a country lane late one night earlier this month, I hit the curb and badly smashed my left ankle. This was followed by two whole weeks unable to run and only now am I managing to hobble back to fitness!

However, there are still seven weeks and two days to go and - with care and luck - I should still be able to complete the marathon. But no promises regarding my time!

I've had so much support from so many people. Thank you to all my friends and all the members of the Thailand-UK.com community who have donated or pledged donations. You have done a good thing. Thank you.

If you haven't donated yet, please don't wait! Seeing the total amount raised is what gives me the fuel to get out there on this dodgy ankle of mine and run!

Please do sponsor me if you can, every penny goes to The Pattaya Orphanage and transforms the lives of hundreds of children. Thank you.

Thank You to everyone who has sponsored me on behalf of the children at The Pattaya Orphanage Trust.
