Dear friends, colleagues and runners.

On 21 April, I will be running the London Marathon for the third time with the ING team.  As you probably know, I have been running for 7 years and I have managed to run 3 times under 3 hours, my best time being 2 hours and 48 minutes last year in Berlin.

This year again, I have trained very hard and I am fully prepared and determined to take up the challenge to run the distance in around 2 hours and 50 minutes or less, which means that I will try to complete the 42 kilometres at an average speed of 15km/h.

I am not raising money very often but this year I would welcome your financial support for the "Dispensaire Francais" (French Clinic). It provides medical service to French speaking patients who do not find the NHS accessible and who are in real need of help.

All the best to you all and thank you in advance for your support. I need it!

Pierre
