Zoe Emery is raising money for Right To Play UK
Story
Hello .....Thank you for visiting my fundraising page here at Just Giving.
Well, I did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ran all the way, I didn't stop nor did I hit that wall! But I won't be rushing to do that again! I managed to complete the 26.2 miles in 4hrs 48mins. Thank you all for sponsoring me your money will make a huge difference to the lives of children who need help the most!
I have 4 days until the big day! And I am pretty stressed and I am almost at my goal, so please help me achieve this goal. I have probably run over 200 miles in events and training and to be honest I want my life back!!!
I have set a challenge for myself by running the Virgin London Marathon in 2010.
My target is to raise £2,000.00 but would love to raise as much as possible! If you could help me in my quest to raise this money for such a worthwhile cause, I would really appreciate it. I plan to run not only 26 miles for the London Marathon but also an additional 58 miles in other events! - surely that merits one or two donations?
I am running for 'Right To Play' - a fantastic charity that through sport helps make a difference to children's lives. Any money raised will make a huge difference to a life, which has been affected by war, poverty and disease in Africa, Asia and the Middle East. With just £20 Right To Play can provide regular, weekly sport and play activity for one child for one year and £160 can provide training for one coach in Right To Plays’ resources!In achieving this target, I am really putting myself through pain by entering the following events:
- Cardiff 5k 2009 (3 miles) - Completed PB 26.05mins
- HSBC Cardiff 10k Sept 2009 (6.2 miles) - Completed
- London Royal Parks 20k Half Marathon October 2009 (13.1 miles) Completed 11th October 2hrs 15mins :-(
- Cardiff 20K Half Marathon October 2009 (13.1 miles) Completed 18th October 2hrs 8 mins! :-)
- Llanelli Waterfront 20k Half Marathon 2010 (13.1 miles) Completed 7th March 2hrs 5 mins! :-) PB
- Atlantic College 10k March 2010 (6.2 miles) - Completed
- London Marathon 40k April 2010 (26.2 miles) - Completed 4HRS 48MINS!!!! :-)
- Cardiff Bay 5 May 2010 (5 miles)
- The END .... Life Back!!!
- A total of 132k = 85 miles

Despite my busy schedule as a working mum of two, I am trying to fit in my training. But faced with a gruelling challenge to run the full marathon in 4 hours & 30 mins, okay 5 hours maybe 6!. This is something I have always wanted to achieve and I can only do my best!!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Right To Play UK 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, as any amount will be very much appreciated! As I said, I will do my best!! -
Many Thanks Zoë x
