Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Here's my story.....

It's 10 years since my last marathon in Boston and I've always wanted to complete the Big 5 Marathons (now 6).  I've done 4, London, New York, Berlin and Boston............. Now for Chicago (and Tokyo next year) and as I was in the area I've also signed up for New York again on the 4th November..................... follow my progress!!

I am very excited about these new challenges and wanted to do it for a great cause.  

When I volunteered with the North London Samaritans earlier in the year, it seemed as if this was the idea opportunity to combine the marathons with raising money for an amazing cause.  So hear goes!!!!

I hope you will support me in raising as much money as possible for North London Samaritans. If you have ever needed them you will know what a wonderful job they do.
