Running on behalf of Fair Havens Hospice

About Me:

This is a little section with a bit of information about me in it, in-case you don't already know!

I graduated in 2005 with a BSc honours degree in Computer Science from Southampton University and since then I have worked for MoneySavingExpert.com the largest Consumer Finance Website in the UK with over 13.5 million visits a month. I build websites and apps both as part of my job and as a hobby.

I set myself a challenge to run 500km by the 31st December 2008 and completed the challenge 2 months early. This was around the same time that I got offered a Golden Bond London Marathon place for 2009. So I am now following in my Dad's footsteps and taking on the challenge of running the 26.2 miles around London on the 26th April.

In the build up to the marathon I also intend on doing the Paris Half Marathon in March as well as pounding the streets around Woodford and London. If you fancy joining me at any point let me know as running buddies are always useful.

Thanks for reading, if you haven't already donated please do and help me reach my target.
