I am taking part in the New York Marathon on the 2nd November 2008 to raise money for Alzheimer's Society and would really appreciate your support.

Training for 26.3 miles requires a lot of time, dedication and commitment but this is nothing compared to the time, dedication and commitment that our friend Mandy and her father John have show in caring for their mother and wife June.

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

So please sponsor me now!
