Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I ran London and Prague marathons in 2014 with just 4 weeks separating them. In 2015 I'm hoping to complete Naples (15th Feb), Paris (12th Apr) and London (26th Apr). That's 3 marathons in 10 weeks and I'm really hoping to achieve a sub 3hr 40min time in at least one of them.
