In September I went for a 5km run, how I ended up signing up for a marathon I'm not quite sure, but here goes...

Every penny you donate will go straight to the charity Feedback Madagascar as I've already covered everything on my side (all the essentials: registration fee, nipple tape). Those donations will then go straight to the often-overlooked rural areas via their brilliant projects which help to alleviate poverty, reduce environmental degradation and poor health. Their low overheads also mean money won't be lost in the administrative side of things.

Thanks for even getting this far, take one step more and give a little. It'll make my day (and make this final month of training even more worthwhile). Right, better go out for a run.
