Thank you for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

I am running in the London Marathon on the 22nd of April 2012 to raise money for the Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice in Glasgow. The hospice provide specialist care for people with life-limiting illness, usually cancer, and support for their families and carers.  The work that the Hospice undertake really is remarkable.

I am by all accounts a novice runner but have always wanted to try and run a marathon. I was lucky enough to get a place at this year’s event through my employer Allianz who will be matching every penny that I raise.

The goal at the start was to just finish the race but after some training sessions that goal moved to ‘finish in a time faster than Lloyd Scott did wearing the deep sea diving suit’ and is now to ‘finish without walking/or in an Ambulance’. As the training progresses I am hopeful that the target may even involve a respectable time being mentioned but we will see.

Thank you once again for visiting my page and making a difference to this worthy cause.
