My story

I'm running the London Marathon this year on behalf of a great charity called 'Rainforest Concern'. Established in 1993 the charity seeks to protect threatened natural habitats, the biodiversity they contain and the indigenous people who still depend on them for their survival.

At present the organisation has 18 conservation projects in 12 countries, working closely with local conservation organisations in these countries to protect rainforests.

In return for me running the torturous 26.2 miles on April 22nd, please can I ask you to dig as deep as you can and sponsor me whatever you can, so that Rainforest Concern can continue their very important work.

Many thanks in advance from both me and the charity.

Neil

It's only pain, Neil... It's nothing a hot bath and a Thai masseuse couldn't put right.
