Story

I've done it!  In a time of 4 hours on the nose, I have completed what has been a phenomenal challenge and the relief is incredible.  all you amazing donors pile the pressure on. Crikey!  please donate if you have come here for the first time.  Anthony Nolan still needs you.

I have been wanting to run the London Marathon for years.  As some of you may know, my mother's leukemia has returned all too quickly which means that she has to have a bone marrow transplant in order to have a chance of survival.  That is why I was looking at the Anthony Nolan Trust website in the first place when I nonchalantly put myself down on the waiting list for its marathon places.  Two days and three phone calls later, they gave me a place.  Although, my mother is uppermost in my mind for this event, I do know others who are attempting to triumph over this disease and without this charity, they would no longer be alive right now.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Anthony Nolan Trust 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.
Please sponsor me now.  Its so easy.
