Story
If there’s one thing I know for sure is that I love a good challenge even when I swear to never do the same thing again.
So here comes…MARATHON #4.
This time I shall be flying off to Greece and sunny Athens to take on the Authentic Marathon experience, following in the footsteps of ‘a news-bearing foot soldier from ancient Athens, who announced - with his last words - the victory of the Greeks against the Persians during the Marathon Battle in 490 BC’ (check out the story here). The back up is Manchester Marathon in case COVID restrictions don't allow for Athens to go ahead.
Once again, I have the privilege of running in support of the wonderful Prince’s Trust and their amazing work helping 11- 30 year old's to get the opportunities they deserve and fulfil their potential regardless of socio – economic status. So far they have returned £1.4 billion in value to society over a period of just ten years.
All done with the help of your kind donations.
You’ve helped me fundraise for the Trust before - in 2017 when I ran the London Marathon and we raised £1,700 for the Trust. So I know we can do this again…
On 14th November I am taking on the 26.2 miles challenge as part of the 2021 Million Makers initiative led by the Trust and alongside my Spade Invaders team, we are aiming to raise over £10k.
To help my team reach the Spade Invaders’ target, I personally need YOUR support to raise £2,000.
And to make it a bit more interesting in 2021, I promise that if I reach the £2,000 target, I will take on an additional high adrenaline challenge which happens to be one of my biggest fears in life... SKY DIVING!
So here’s what I’d very much love for you to do – please click on that donate button and sponsor my marathon run. Every little counts even if it is just a £1 that you could spare.
To make it even more fun, I'll let my sponsors create my Spotify playlist for the race. So for every donation up to £20 please add 1 song in the comment box; for a donation of/over £20 please add 2 songs, and for any donation of £30 or more - let me know what 3 songs I'm adding to the playlist.
Thank you for your support and kind donations.
