Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I hope that you will make a donation to SPEAR, a charity doing excellent work helping homeless people.

What?

As many of you know, I do a bit of running from time to time. 5k, 10k, 10 miles and more, but one thing has been missing - a full marathon.  26.2 miles is a long way. A bloody long way. Apparently, it's twice the distance of a half marathon!  It's going to be hard, it could take a while, my knees and ankles are going to hate me more than they do already, but it will be worth it if I can raise money for an excellent cause too. 

Who?

I am raising funds for SPEAR, a charity based near where I live in Twickenham. Its mission is to enable homeless people in South and West London to find secure accommodation and work towards a positive future.  I'd be hugely grateful if you could make a donation to SPEAR to help it with its important work with vulnerable people. It would mean a lot to me but it will mean more to them. Thank you very much. Russell
