Hello there and thanks for visiting my fundraising web page!

Next Sunday, 14th September 2008 I will be doing something I've never done before! Running 13.1 miles (21km) without stopping, in the Bristol Half Marathon.

I have set myself the target of finishing the race, and completing it in under 1hr 45 minutes (the same time per mile I ran the 10km in but over twice the distance).

I have decided to raise some money for a local charity in Bristol - 'The Rainbow Centre for Children'. In their own words:-

"The Rainbow Centre offers free and professional help for children affected by cancer, life threatening illness and bereavement."

Please have a look at their web site for more information on the great work they do.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and approved by The Rainbow Centre, as it greatly reduces their admininstration costs.

Although Justgiving take a small percentage of your donation, it does mean all sponsor money gets collected. Also I don't need to chase anyone, and the money gets passed on to the charity immediately. If you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving automatically adds 28% in Gift Aid, to your donation (at no cost to you). If you would prefer to donate without using the web site please let me know.

Now you've read this far, I'd be really pleased if you could sponsor me. It'll make the last mile a bit easier!??

Thanks to you all. Rob.
