Hello and thakyou for stopping by!
Ben, an overweight 30-something computer programmer has volunteered himself for 26 miles of pain and suffering in London on the 21st April 2013.
That's right, the Virgin London Marathon.
Trying to raise funds for two charities (Oxfam and WWF) and it seems the only way to do that at JustGiving is to create a team page - this is it!
Please, if you can afford just a couple of quid pledge it. It will make my suffering so much more bearable and help me make it to the finish line on my feet rather than a stretcher.
If you want more details on my suffering have a look at my marathon pages here: www.bensmarathon.com
Neither Oxfam nor WWF are paying for my place in the marathon. They are not paying for travel to London for the event or accomodation. I am paying for it all.
All the money you sponsor me will go to the charities. I don't see any of it.
Remember: Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift Aid (an additional 28%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with JustGiving.
So please dig deep and donate now.
