Perkins Great Eastern Half Marathon · 11 October 2009

Railway Children has a vision of a world in which no child is lost to the streets. Across the UK, India and Tanzania, our networks provide an opportunity for us to reach children who are alone and vulnerable before they come to serious harm. Together, we’re determined we’ll leave no child behind.

Story

Results are published - and I am delighted with them! I was 741st over the line in a time of 01:44:28. I was 731st fastest with a course time of 01:43:30 - my personal best by a long way.

Thank you to everyone who sponsored me. It is very much appreciated.

I’m running the Great Eastern Half Marathon on Sunday 11 October on behalf of the Railway Children: 13.1 miles around the hills of Peterborough. It would be fantastic if you would sponsor me
.

Any large amount greatly appreciated! I’ll be giving everything to try to get as far under 120 minutes as I can – feel free to sponsor me £’s per minute under this target if you wish (and please be generous if you do – I’ve done the distance in 118 minutes in training - once. Whilst it hurt a lot it feels good knowing you will hopefully sponsor me more if you think I can do it). Thanks in advance, and on behalf of the children, for your kind generosity.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. JustGiving send your money directly to the Railway Children and if you tick the right boxes, they make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed by UK taxpayers too. It’s the most efficient way to donate.

Thanks.
