Virgin London Marathon 2010 · 25 April 2010 ·

Sparks raises money to fund pioneering child health research across the UK, helping to find new treatments and cures for children and families who desperately need them.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've set a goal of running the 2010 Virgin London Marathon and at the same time help a Fundraising organization based in the UK, called Sparks.

Sparks is the children’s medical research charity. Their sole remit is to fund research across the whole spectrum of paediatric medicine.  Their goal is for all babies to be born healthy and stay healthy.

Every day 70 babies are born in the UK with a life-threatening condition or an illness that will affect them and their families for life.  Sparks aims to reduce this statistic so all children have the chance of a healthy future.

Imagine being told that your child has cancer, imagine your child having damaged lungs or imagine your child facing life in a wheelchair. Imagine the difference you can make by supporting Sparks. 

Together we can make a real difference to the lives of sick babies and children.  

I'm putting a lot of personal effort into this challenge and I've started my training last May and my goal is to finish the race on the 4 hours mark. I will keep you updated on my training and results of the training races untill then on this page.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thank you

Nuno Sousa
