My story
I never learn! Here I am, a couple of years on - and doing exactly what I swore I'd never do again!
There are loads of reasons why I shouldn't run a marathon. Principally, it will hurt like hell! So why am I doing it?
Well, ORT are going to teach 4,500 builders in Haiti how to rebuild their homes safely so that they're safe in the event of another earthquake. To do that, they're going to need wads of cash - and running marathons is a traditional way to wangle your hard-earned pounds out of you for a good cause!
I'm raising money for the Building Back Better project. You can find out more here: http://www.britishort.org/what-we-do/current-projects/building-back-better/
