Virgin London Marathon 2015 · 26 April 2015 ·
Thanks for taking the time to visit Ana & Priya's Virgin London Marathon 2015 page
Ana - It's been a while since I have been thinking to do something like this, but never had the guts or will to do it. It started as a challenge which quickly materialised with the help received from Sense and Elara.
We always sympathise with heart-breaking stories of kids and families in need but after hearing them how many of us actually do something about it?
Today, me and Priya have decided to work hard and achieve our target of £5000.00 with your help to make a small difference in these children's life.
It's not going to be easy but hey, what is easy in life. We will try to keep you updated and hope to see you at the finish line in April 2015 .
This is also a tribute for my dad who passed away in 2010 after a 6 months battle with stomach cancer. This is for you Dad.Priya - When I tell people that I'm running the marathon this year, they tell me I'm crazy, maybe I am. It's been a tough journey so far but life is so much tougher for those children who live every day without the ability to see and hear.
We take so much for granted every single day; it's time to give something back and make as much of a difference as we can! Ana's right - Life's not easy, but we can help make it even slightly easier by DONATING TODAY!!
