Story

.

 

Thanks very much for taking the time to take a peek at my page. I've never run a marathon before and decided that it was 'now or never' as I'll be 42 this year. I'm hoping to raise as much money as possible for 'Wooden Spoon' and I know that every penny will be spent locally to help disadvantaged children.

They are currently creating a special play area for disabled kids in Patcham which will cost £28000. The next project will be extending a hoist system in Horsham in a hydrotherapy pool for severely handicapped children, £35000 is needed to do this so PLEASE sponser me as little or as much as you can. Your money will make a real difference to the lives of these kids, plus gift aid will be added if you pay tax.

 

I have been training hard with the help of the team since September. We are up to 16 miles now and still enjoying it! Even running in the rain doesn't seem so bad anymore.We are the motly crew  seen pounding the streets of Brighton and Hove often accompanied by our loyal 4 legged team member Walter, a labradoodle who never moans (unlike some of the team!).

 

My aim is to complete the race in around 4.5 hours but anything under 5 would be good.

 

Thanks Very Much
