Matt Whaley's fundraising page
Hi, thanks for visiting my page.
I'm running the London Marathon for Action for Children and I really need your help to raise £5000.
As you will probably know... I'm not a runner at heart... but fancied a challenge and one for a great cause.
I'm going to be working very hard to make sure i can run the whole marathon and my personal target (which wont be easy!) is to do under 4 hours. I have only been training since the begining of Jan and be able to achieve my challenge will be very hard.
All i ask is that you give generously... I'm working very hard to do this, please give equally as hard.
Thanks for you help and support........the children will love you.
