Finally! After nearly 15 years of dreaming of doing it, I finally get to run the London Marathon in 2019! This fantastic, small charity has made that dream come true, and I am, in turn, doing my best to help it provide invaluable support and care to loads of people in need.

So am going to go through all the pain, all these cold and wet days, the blisters, the exhaustion and all that comes with marathon training. I have set the challenge bar really high even for myself as I've never run a distance that comes even close to 26.2 miles... And you can show your support of my effort and appreciation of the good being done in aid of those less lucky than us by donating a few pounds here. You can show that you believe in me and that I can do this by supporting my cause in help of the Dockland Settlements. A charity that is local to the beautiful area I used to live in for nearly 15 years, a charity which is small and a lot less popular nationwide and to which every pound makes a huge difference. So just go ahead, do something good during your day today and sponsor me! No amount is too small or too big, be as generous as it makes you feel good!
