<p>This has to be by far the biggest challenge of my life!!!</p> <p>Since joining the Albert Park Run last year i've picked up the running bug. I've done the Great Nort Run several times now, The Middlesbrough 10k and&nbsp;The Redcar Half Marathon and now it's time for a new challenge!!!</p> <p>I have decided to participate in the first Marathon of the North around Sunderland on May the 6th this year. I've no doubt that it will be a painful 26.2 miles and that i'll need all the motivating i can get!!!</p> <p>Thats where you can help, if i can raise &pound;500 for the special babies at Zoe's Place this is enough money to provide care for&nbsp;one&nbsp;baby for one day and night, why on earth would I think about getting the bus when the&nbsp;going gets tough???</p> <p>I am fortunate enough to have good health and i intend to put it to good use, so please sponsor me if you can -&nbsp;every donation counts and makes a huge difference no matter how big or small</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
