Spencer's London Marathon Sponsorship Update!
A massive thank-you so far to everyone who has been so generous and taken the time to sponsor me! You’ve helped me raise 75% of the £1,200 I have been trying to raise in less than three weeks! AMAZING!
As a reminder to everyone else, I’m running the 2008 London Marathon for the registered charity "Vision" http://www.visioncharity.co.uk/.
I started my official training two weeks ago and have already run over 75 miles in the past three weeks!
With 12 more weeks training to go, I have to also run Reading and Fleet Half Marathons as well as an 18 mile run the Saturday in between the two half marathons.
I am going to be running a whopping 500 more miles over the next 12 weeks and I am aiming for a time of 3 hours 59 minutes! (well I did say ‘aim’)
If you haven’t done so already, if you could please find the time to sponsor me online by visiting http://www.justgiving.com/spencergallagher that would be fantastic!
As an added incentive the individual person that sponsors me the most by the end of this month (January 2008) will be able to bring three friends to a premiership game of “their choice” next season in the Bluhalo box at Spurs with full hospitality as our guests.
No matter how small every £1 counts, thanks for any support you can give!
All the best
