Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

For some reason I have volunteered to do the Rotterdam Marathon on 15 Apr 07. I'm not sure what came over me, I wasn't even drunk! 

This will be my first marathon so as i'm sure you will appreciate I am a little bit scared!    I started my training before Christmas (even went out for a run on Christmas day!) and am on target so far but 26.2 miles is a long way!!!

I feel that we are at a time when help to service personnel and their families is a particularly important issue and so I have decided to try to raise some money for the RAF Benevolent Fund to make all the pain from running seem worthwhile so please sponsor me. It doesn't matter how much or how little you donate and I have set up this site so that you can do it easily on line if you wish. Alternatively I will be happy to accept cheques or cash if you prefer and do have some manual sponsor forms.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

I'm running the marathon with Lee who has kindly offered to stay with me and drag me round if necessary so I'll ask him to get a photo of me at the end so you can all have a giggle!

Thank you for your support, wish me luck!!
