So, thank you all for coming to my page! Most of the people who know about the run think I'm crazy. A month into training and I'm starting to agree with them... Still, it'll be a lovely 13-mile run through the parks of London in mid-October - just three days before Frankfurt book fair! I'm aiming for a time of 2 hours and 15 minutes, but to be honest I would be happy with just finishing without having to walk. Still, there are a few months to go and a lot of training ahead. Anything is possible!
I'm running for Book Aid International, a fantastic charity that sends books and other educational material to sub-Saharan Africa to help literacy initiatives in schools and libraries. As they say, 'books change lives', so this is a cause I feel is really important.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Book Aid International 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.
Thank you all for taking the time to come here, and any donation, whatever the size, is really appreciated.
Thank you,
Paul
