Bliss is the leading UK charity for babies born premature or sick. We rely on donations to fund our work but with one baby admitted to neonatal care every five minutes we don’t have the resources to reach every baby who needs us. Your donation can help Bliss ensure every baby gets the best care.

Story

Hello!

Just to say a quick thank you to everyone who has sponsored me. I finished the 2006 flora london marathon (with a good 200m sprint finish i mite add!) in a time of 4:43:04. A little more than the 4hrs i was hoping for but that was probably a little optomistic and given that i had only decided i would run it and had only been training since december, i am more than happy with my time.

The race was really great and had a brilliant day, was just a big 26 mile carnival and although i was pretty shattered and it took a good few days to recover, i wud definitely love 2 do it again.

To this date i have raised almost £2,000 for Bliss which is absolutely fantastic so once again a big thank you to all that have sponsored me.  Although obviously i have now completed the race, this site will accept sponsorship until the end of june so please sponsor me if you haven't already, the money means a lot to Bliss who, for those who are unaware, provide care and support for premature babies and their families.

As promised, top left there is photographic evidence that it was me running, check out the concentration!!

Many thanks once again for all your support,

Simon
