Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page :)

After weeks of consideration, I had a crazy moment and found myself signing up for the 2012 Cardiff Half Marathon. With little experience of long distance running, the next few months and race itself will be a huge challenge for me but the hard work will be 100% worth it to raise money for SOS Africa, an amazing charity set up in 2003 by a former Swansea Uni student.

SOS Africa funds the education and care of the poorest children from the townships of South Africa. It is a small but very successful, non-profit, UK registered and predominantly volunteer-run African charity. This means you can be sure that every penny you donate will be invested in the future of the children that SOS Africa support. To find out more visit: http://www.sosafrica.com/.

Donating through this page is very simple and totally secure. All your details are safe and you'll not get any unwanted emails afterwards. Once you donate, you money will be sent directly to the charity and Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation if you’re a UK taxpayer.

Every penny will help to reach my target. Each donation is greatly appreciated and will give me an extra boost to cross the finish line!

Thank you!!
