My personal message:

Hi Everyone!

Yes believe it or not (probably not), I Owen Thomas, have run the Virgin London Marathon 2010! I managed to complete the 26.2 mile course in 3 hours 52 mins.

I'm absolutely amazed at the response I've had from you lovely people who have sponsored me. The money will go to my favourite charity - Christian Aid.

I love this charity because it works all over the world, helping people in far greater need than ourselves, including in some of the countries that I have visited myself such as Peru. Please help me to reach my target and, in turn, help the lives of many other people.

Thanks for your support!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Christian Aid 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.

(if you haven't already...) please sponsor me now!
