Hi, thanks for visiting my page. Through Localgiving you can sponsor me and donations will be quickly processed and passed to both my chosen charities. I really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations.
Just to put you in the picture I've been lucky enough to get a place in the London Marathon. I only took up running 3 years ago as a way of motivating myself when I gave up smoking. Starting running aged 45 probably seems a mad idea but I absolutely love it despite all the aches and pains it entails. To date I've run 6 competitive half marathons and numerous 10K and 5K runs. In December 2014 I ran a full marathon. It went OK but now I'm keen to really give it my best shot at the biggest and best marathon in the world.
I'm raising money for Five A Day Market Garden which is an innovative not for profit community project offering outdoor opportunities in gardening, conservation and environmental art to people of all ages and abilities. Over 3000 people a year visit Five a Day. www.fiveaday.org.uk. I'll be splitting the proceeds with The John Simonds Trust a charity based at Rushall Farm. The trust aims to educate children about where their food comes from and to give them a love and understanding of the countryside. In 2014 the farm played host to over 13,000 school children. http://www.rushallfarm.org.uk/
