Thanks for the support. Those of us who know us know we're not runners, and it isn't something that has come easily for either of us. Penny, at 42, hasn't run since school hockey games some 25 years ago and Yvonne would never describe her self as being 'naturally athletic'. 

As with most crazy ideas, this came over a pint in the pub... 12 months later and YHA have kindly allowed us places on their London Marathon team to run and fund raise for the fantastic charity that they are. We will regularly update you on our progress to the big day and we thank you for any support you're able to give!  

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
