The marathon has been completed. For report write up see here

What was this page all about? See below:

Decided to run one last marathon and thought this last one should be for a charity.....with a pet tyre or tyres of course. LOOK  has provided me with that opportunity. A well worthy charity that supports carers of visually impaired disabled children.

Anyway, for your entertainment, there are tier bands for the amount I raise and what I drag on the day. Further to that, you get to decide how I dress on the day (see below for options)

The tier bands for what I will drag depends on the funds I raise:
Below £1,250 - will be dragging a bicycle tyre
Between £1,250 and £3,499 - will drag a car tyre
 Above £3,500 - £9,999 - will drag 2 car tyres
Over £10,000 - a tractor tyre (if I get this amount DON'T tell my mother)

Once you have donated an amount (£2 is fine), a comment box will appear. In your comments vote for what you would like to see me wearing:

A. During the marathon, that is enter one of the numbers below (for example enter A1 for whatever I want to wear):

1. What ever I want to wear
2. A dress
3. A police woman's outfit

B. For the photo finish

1. What ever I am wearing for the marathon
2. A designer dress
3. What I would wear if I were going to the South Pole

NB: If you enter nothing, I will assume you are giving me the choice

Weekly consolidated updates will be done at gfiexpeditions

Whilst dragging me tyres passing people, women normally give me sympathetic looks:

- you poor thing! .................me: I must look really bad!
- that looks tiring.................me: Hope not, I've got 8 more miles to go
- that looks like torture.......me: Yes, I am a masochist

Men on the otherhand like to try the quick wit:

- have you lost your car? ............me: Yes economic downturn
- can I have a ride?......................me: Sure hop on
- you must be mad?....................me: Yes a jibbering wreck. Isn't that great?
- excuse me did you know there's something on your back?........me: yeah and did you know there's something on your head (4 boys cycling past me)

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