Hi family, friends, colleagues and everyone I've persuaded to sponsor me. As you know, I'm about to undertake one of the hardest things I've ever done, the 2009 London Marathon! I'm not sure I've trained enough, by any stretch of the imagination, but I'm determined to finish it and all for an amazing cause. I'm running on behalf of the Lord Taverners, which helps young people, particularly those with social, environmental, physical or learning disadvantages, to enjoy cricket and other sporting and leisure activities. I know its credit crunch and all that but PLEASE, help me get around the course by donating even a few pennies to ensure a child benefits from my pain!!! THANK YOU - every penny is appreciated!!! Pip xxx p.s. For those that want to witness a true spectacle, please join me in the Phoenix Pub in Buckingham Square for a good laugh at the colour of my face after 26-miles!!! I hope to see you there... Px
