Event: London Marathon 2009
Date of event: 26 April 2009
Hi,
Thank you for visiting my sponsorship page and supporting me what has to be the most insane idea I've ever had:
4 Marathons in 8 Weeks.
Paris - 5th April
London - 26th April
Belfast - 4th May
Edinburgh - 31st May
I have places confirmed for all 4 so there is no backing out now.
I've even given up crisps and burger. HONEST!!!
But there is no point ruining my knee's unless its for a good cause so please help me achive my sponsorship target and raise money for an amazing charity.
You can keep up with my training Blog @ www.theginge.com/blog.
I am raising money for Action Medical Research, a great charity that funds pioneering medical research.
In its 50 year history it has been involved with numerous breakthroughs such as ultrasound in pregnancy, the polio vaccine and the hip replacement operation.
They fund many research projects each year which will lead to a healthier future for everyone. They are currently campaigning for the UK Government to put more money in to research in to premature birth. Action Medical Research have funded over £2 million of research in this area but more research is required to understand why this remains the biggest killer of under 1’s.
With your help we can achieve even more medical breakthroughs.
Please tick the Gift Aid box if you are a UK tax payer as the UK Government will then give me an additional 25% on the money that I have raised.
Many, Many Thanks for your help and Love.
