My story

 

well - we did it!!

Hi thanks for taking the time to visit our fundraising page. Mum and I are running the 2008 New York marathon in aid of Get Kids Going! which helps disabled kids take part in sport. Doing so much sport, it's easy to almost take it for granted that we can, but there are so many less able and less fortunate people and by sponsoring us it will enable more children to enjoy sport too.

This will be my second marathon, having completed London marathon last year in just under 4 hours, so the target for this one is to better that! Mum has done quite a few including other ones abroad but they still don't get any easier. So, please support us and Get Kids Going!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. Get Kids Going! 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.

If you want to do it the old fashioned way, I have a sponsor form for you to add your name too, or you can let me know the amount you would like to sponsor and I'll add you to the list.

So please sponsor us

THANK YOU!!!

Jo & Gill
