On 25th September I will be running the 'Run to the Beat' half-marathon and I’d be very grateful for your support! I’m hoping to raise £500 for CARE International, a global humanitarian organisation – further details below.
The run is 21km (13 miles) round Greenwhich – having never ran more than 10km up until a few weeks ago (and having not run more than 11km at all yet!) I see this as no mean feat! Please sponsor me to make sure I’m plenty motivated enough to pummel my legs into oblivion in training over the next 4 weeks and to finish in a respectable time. My target is to finish in less than 2 hours, which means doubling the longest distance I’ve run AND improving my pace both at once!
If you’d like to sponsor me I’d be very grateful. Not only will your donation be increased by 28% from the Inland Revenue as part of Gift Aid, but whatever I raise (up to £500) will also be matched by Lloyds Banking Group so your donations will count for more than double the amount!

Many thanks for your support!
