My story

 

Can you believe it, I plan to run the London Marathon. Now read that again. I'm going to run a marathon!!

And I intend to blog during the race -- follow my progress here http://twitter.com/peter_wilkinson

So please get your credit card out and sponsor those good people at Amnesty International so they can help to stop people getting tortured and executed around the world. Knowing you've done this will help to drive me through the pain barrier when I'm on the point of collapse.

Now to the boring stuff. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Amnesty International UK Section Charitable Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now! Go on just do it, please!!
