Welcome to my Flora London Marathon 2009 fundraising page

In July 2008, due to certain events I started running. My first ever competition run was the Nike Human Race 10K, held at Wembly on 31/08/2008, for which I raised, close to £800 for charity. My next run was another 10K, held at Lea Athletics Centre. After running this race I decided to step up a gear and run a Half Marathon in Stevenage on 02/11/08. That was it; I had caught the running bug & decided to go for the big one! Flora London Marathon 2009.

Once I chose to run the London Marathon I thought why not run for a good cause. I found Crunch UK's website, looked through the charities listed and found Backcare. I chose BackCare for my charity because my mother and other friends and associates I know suffer from some sort of back problem. I feel that a lot more needs to be done to make people aware of how to prevent and treat backcare, that's where Backcare comes in. Help me help Backcare please.

Running the Flora London Marathon is no simple task. For someone like myself it takes months of training. My training schedule at the moment is four weekly runs, consisting of 1 long distance road run 12miles onwards, 6mile fast paced road run, 6mill treadmill hill run & 6 mill fast paced treadmill run. On my spares days I do some weight training. Already I'm running 30miles per week and its only Nov 08! LOL. Each week my long distance road run will increase until I reach over 20miles. So there you go, an insight into what's involved in running a marathon.

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: BackCare gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!

Finally I would like to thank my wife Sarah for all her support and for keeping me motivated, my friend Joe Amodei for joining me in competition runs, my cousin Carlo Bongiorno for getting my running started, all my other friends and work colleagues for their support and finally a big thank you to all my friends at World Of Digital for all their help and support http://www.world-of-digital.com
