My story

Hello All

Blimey, it was chilly! It was however, a beautiful day on Tyneside and I really enjoyed my Great North Run from the centre of Newcastle to the coast.  I was delighted to finish in 1 hour and 40 minutes and actually beat my wife Sally and the public transport system to the finish line!  (she got 'delayed' by McDonalds and the shops in Eldon Square...!)

I ran as part of the British Red Cross team again who looked after me well, giving me a much needed cuppa and massage at the finish line.

You all helped me raise a staggering £8700 last year for the London Marathon, so it would be great to raise over £1300 this time, bringing our total contribution to a great cause to more than £10,000.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: British Red Cross 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!

Many thanks for your support.

Peter
