Well, after years of talking about doing it, this is the year I finally attempt my first marathon, when on September 20 I join my brother, Matt, to run the Berlin Marathon.
To provide me with maximum motivation - which I can assure you will be needed on my long training runs - I am going to be running the 26.2 miles in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support in memory of my late Nana, as it was her chosen charity and one that provides a crucial lifeline to cancer sufferers and their families.
Any donation, however small, would be greatly received. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Macmillan 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.
Thanks so much,
Rach
