Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Against my better judgement, I've "volunteered" to run in the AMREF water for life half marathon on 22 March 2009.  One of my clients suggested KPMG should consider putting a team together, which I immediately took to mean the young/fit staff rather than old/less fit partners.  The team's view was that delegation has its limits and would only run if I did!  Not unreasonable, so I've had to throw my name in the hat along with some more willing but equally unfit partners.  It's a great cause, so I'm certainly up for the challenge, but concerned by the rather daunting 16 week training schedule.  I've also realised it's not a great time to start training as Sevenoaks seems to be all hills and lacking in street lights.  I've had to acquire a head torch, but have also taken the opportunity to a test out a few other gadgets - as you'd expect!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: African Medical and Research Foundation, UK gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
 
Many thanks for taking the time to consider this.

Best wishes
