2007 is a big year for me, with a lot of firsts lined up. In chronological order: I'm running my first ever 10k on July 1st, I'm graduating (fingers crossed) on July 6th after which I can stick MBA after my name, I'm turning 30 on September 15th. To mark this special year, I've decided to try for another first: raise 500 pounds for a charity dear to my heart: Room to Read (find out more on http://www.roomtoread.org). Books and libraries have an important place in my life and I want this magic with others.

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

Many thanks for your support, you're making a difference in someone's life!
