I ran the Brighton marathon on 15th April 2012 for the Dispensaire Francais.   This was the 4th marathon that I have run for charity. I am delighted to say that I achieved my personal best time for the Dispensaire. My previous times are 3hrs37 (London), 3hrs34 (New York) and 3hrs28 (Paris). I just ran a 3h27 marathon despite a ruptured ear drum from otitis media, a hot day with lots of wind and a really hilly course. Please consider giving generously! <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; vertical-align: baseline; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Having worked at the Dispensaire myself as a doctor I know that for many patients it is their only chance of getting appropriate treatment when they are at their most vulnerable and at their time of greatest need. These patients are often far from home and have financial troubles, many have real difficulties in understanding English, and they need our help. All donations will go directly to this registered Charity. All the doctors (GPs and specialists) and allied health professionals at the Dispensaire give all their hard work for free.   Please see the Dispensaire's website for more information about this non-profit making registered charity: <a style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; background-color: white; line-height: 15.9pt;" href="http://www.dispensairefrancais.org.uk/sommaire.php?id_rubrique=2">http://www.dispensairefrancais.org.uk/sommaire.php?id_rubrique=2</a>   Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Dispensaire Francais gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid are added to your donation. Payments go directly to the Charity. <span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; color: #c00000; border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"> So please would you consider sponsoring me now!<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; color: #c00000; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">  <span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; color: #c00000; border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">Merci beaucoup!<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; color: #c00000; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">  <span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; color: #c00000; border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">Olivier and the Team at the Dispensaire Français <span style="font-size: 14.0pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; color: #c00000; border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10.05pt; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; vertical-align: baseline; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Je m apprête à participer au marathon de Brighton, le 15 avril 2012, que j'aurai l honneur de courir pour le Dispensaire français. <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10.05pt; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; vertical-align: baseline; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;"><span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Ayant moi même travaillé pour le Dispensaire en qualité de médecin, je sais que pour beaucoup de patients, c'est une chance unique de bénéficier de traitements efficients dans des moments de grande vulnérabilité. Ces patients sont loin de chez eux, ont souvent des difficultés financières et ne maîtrisent pour certains, que mal la langue anglaise. C'est pourquoi ils ont besoin de nous. Tous les dons iront directement au Dispensaire. Tous les médecins (généralistes et spécialistes) ainsi que les professions de santé associées donnent leur temps bénévolement au dispensaire. <span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Je vous invite à visiter le site internet pour plus d'informations sur cette association caritative. <a href="http://www.dispensairefrancais.org.uk/">http://www.dispensairefrancais.org.uk/</a> Faire un don par JustGiving est rapide, facile et complètement sécurisé. C'est aussi le moyen le plus efficace de me sponsoriser: le Dispensaire français recevra l'argent plus rapidement et si vous payez des taxes au Royaume Uni, JustGiving réclamera le supplément Gift Aid de 25% à votre don. Les paiements iront directement à la Charity. Alors à votre bon c&oelig;ur messieurs dames, le Dispensaire et moi même comptons sur vous et je vous promets même que j essaierai d'améliorer mon chrono cette année (argument ultime, s'il en fallait encore un, pour vous décider à me sponsoriser)! Merci a tous, Olivier et l’équipe du Dispensaire Français.
