So I am once again putting myslef through the pain of running the Flora London Marathon in order to raise money for a good cause....

This year I am raising money for animals rather than people...I am running for the Born Free Foundation, an amazing charity which rescues animal from suffering and cureulty and promotes keeping animals in the wild where they belong...

I have seen some of the animals rescused when in South Africa this year, and without Born Free, the lions which we saw would be a trophy on someone's wall by now. But happliy now they are running wild in the Garden Route Game Reserve.

Please help me to raise money to help these animals, and also to motivate me to try to beat my time from last year....(and also to beat my little brother...!). Any donation, small or large, is very much appreciated in these times of financial harship...

If you click the tax bonus box below (if you are a UK tax payer), Born Free will get an extra 28% at no cost to you

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this and I hope you will be cheering me on and can join me in celebrating (hopefully...!) on 26th April.
