James Runs London & NYC Marathons
Yes, you heard correctly; this year the plan is to run both London and New York Marathons in 2010, in order to raise lots of lovely cash for Children with Leukaemia, the UK charity dedicated to fighting Britain's biggest childhood cancer.
By running two marathons in one year, I'm aiming to raise £2,500 (which is no small amount!). Please do dig deep and give as much as you can, although every donation -no matter how small- is appreciated.
And just to reassure you, I will be covering the costs for flights and accommodation in NYC, so it is not paid for by the charity or by any of your donations - every penny you donate goes to the charity and stays there.
But the BEST thing about running for Children with Leukaemia, is that they are the official Mr Men and Little Miss running team, which means there's always the possibility of running it as Mr Tickle (childhood favourite).
Donating through this page is simple, quick and secure. It is the most efficient way to give – so every donation goes further – and if you are a UK taxpayer and give Gift Aid consent the charity will receive an extra 28% at no cost to you.
Thank you for your support and thanks on behalf of all the children who will benefit from your generosity.
