Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page to raise funds for Oxfam and my fund raising goal.

I began running and training for marathons at the age of 40. Now, as a avid marathon runner, I am looking forward to running my 12th marathon in London!  I will be not only be training for 26.2 miles, I will also be raising funds for Oxfam. A charity I first raised funds for through my church when I was a child.  As many of you know, I just spent 16 months sailing around the world with my family.  It was an amazing experience, but also made me aware that hunger is a world wide issue. 

Oxfam works with others to overcome poverty, injustice and suffering around the world. You'll be helping make that work possible. Last year with help from people just like you, Oxfam transformed the lives of 15 million people worldwide!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. It’s the most efficient way to donate and support my fundraising efforts.

Please consider helping me reach my goal to raise funds for Oxfam. Any funds raised go directly to Oxfam. Any amount is greatly appreciated!

Follow my story as I train this winter for the Virgin Money London Marathon. I live in Northeast Ohio where winter started in October! Running is never easy in the winter and I am certain there will be stories to tell of long runs, intervals & hill repeats in the snow, sleet and frigid temps. Sounds like fun, doesn't it!

Many thanks for your support ~ please forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
