Story
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
Last year I set myself a goal to run the up to 3 races - so far enlisted for Reading Half Marathon and Wokingham Half Marathon.
Reading Half Marathon: After months of difficult training in all weather conditions, I feel prepared enough to hit a sub 2 hours time (target anything less than 2hrs) on 29th March 2009. I achieved 02:04:07 hrs
Wokingham Half Marathon on 24th May 2009, target time 01:55:00 hrs
My training put me through situations that thought me good lessons such as patience, perseverence and hope. Hope in the sense that I knew my pains were not in vain, and a prize awaits me at the end.
I have decided to use this once in a lifetime opportunity to give hope to other less priviledged children and young people like myself around the World.
Help me give Hope through ADRA UK by supporting my debut race with your money.
Target amount is £200. ADRA + YOU + I = HOPE
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: ADRA-UK gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
