My personal message:

10 marathons in 10 days may seem a tall order, but it does not compare to how some children in the UK feel when there seems there is no choice, they do not know where to turn and usually its the wrong way! 

Brathay work in partnership with various national and regional youth agencies in helping children and young people overcome difficulties arising from their personal and social circumstances, and give them the skills to make positive choices about their behavior and attitude. They currently work with over 5000 children and young people each year.

So please help to make a difference!!!!!!!

If you donate £50 or more, you will get a limited edition T shirt, or you can always make a condition that is blog worthy!!  My uncle sponsored me £50 to wear an england Rugby shirt for 1 mile!!  You can read it all, think up your own challenge and follow the run on my website. www.10marathons10days.com

You can check out my blog at http://10marathons10days.blogspot.com/  or vist my own webpage at http://www.10marathons10days.com . Don't worry as you can still link back to this page from either website. 

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Brathay Hall 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.

10 Marathons, 10 days, 10 good reasons to help.

Thank you for all your support, 10 times over!

Matthew
