Hello and thanks for visiting my fundraising page. I'm running in the 24th Marathon des Sables at the end of March 2009, a 245km Ultra/Adventure race over 6 stages in the Moroccan Sahara, dubbed "The toughest footrace on earth", in temperatures that can exceed 50F. While hoping to enjoy my Saharan adventure, I will also be raising as much money as possible for Mencap, and your support would be greatly appreciated.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Mencap 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.

So please sponsor me now!
