Hello there!

Yes, I have finally lost the plot and am running the London Marathon on April 23 2006! I'm running in aid of WWF-UK (in my opinion probably the best charity in the world, saving the planet etc......! and yes I am privileged enough to work for them too)

Please take a moment to look at the amazing work WWF does on this web link below.

Although sporty, I have never been a 'runner'  or done any type of running event, so running 26.2 miles really is an absolute marathon challenge for me!

At the moment, my dodgy pedometer tells me I'm running up to about 8 miles - mainly on the roads of sunny Farncombe and Godalming and along the canal to Guildford on the week-ends. I'm also doing the Brighton 1/2 Marathon on February 19 and then the BIG ONE on April 23 (soon after my birthday - not many beers then I'm afraid!) I lead a busy life so trying to fit in all the training is proving difficult but hopefully I am on target.......

I really hope that a lot of you will be positioned strategically along the route on the day to cheer me (the red faced beetroot)) on! I need all the help I can get, so please put April 23 in your diaries.

Thank you all very much for your support and as the saying goes, every penny counts! Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: WWF-UK 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 and help raise valuable money for WWF-UK

Take care and I promise a big celebration afterwards!

A BIG THANK YOU in advance!
