Story

Thank you so much for visiting my fundraising page.

This is my first athlectic challenge since leaving school twenty years ago! I have been training seriously for a year and have completed three competitive half-marathons.

My husband Patrick and I have been raising money for SPARKS for over ten years now. Patrick has done this by indulging his love of golf and I have chosen to run the London Marathon.

As a mother, I feel blessed in having a healthy child and supporting a children's medical research charity seemed a natural choice.

Donating through this site is simple and secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: SPARKS will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you. Many thanks for your support. It is official my finish time was 3hours 59mins and 8 seconds! Fiona
