Story

Ok, so I've finally been persuaded to do it! A half-marathon race!

Why? Great question! I love running, and friends and family have persuaded me to do a formal half-marathon. I was also keen to use the run to support a local charity, and Wiltshire Air Ambulance are right up there with really worthy causes to support. They save lives daily by drastically reducing time to get to accidents and incidents. If you live in Wiltshire - or travel through Wiltshire - then it could be your life they save next! They rely totally on donations, so every penny counts to keep them flying.

So will I finish? I should do - I've been running for some time, including longer distances. It will be a new experience running with the pack 'though! I'm aiming for under 2 hours, with a stretch target of 1:45

So if you agree that Wilts Air Ambulance are a worthy cause (and saving lives must be, right!), and you're happy to, then I'd be really pleased if you would be able to donate to keep them flying - and encourage me to keep on running!

Thanks for your encouragement and support!
