Hi!
I’m running the Barcelona Marathon on March 2nd, and was wondering if you would like to sponsor me? I am doing some volunteer work this summer in a hospital for terminally ill children in Argentina, and am trying to fundraise for it. I am going to work to raise money for flights, accommodation etc but need to raise £500 towards the costs of the program. Any money extra raised I am going to donate to the Leukaemia research charity.

I have been training hard since September and am aiming to complete the course in under 3 hours 30 minutes, preferably around 3 hours 20.

I’m also running a little competition on the side which you can be a part of if you choose to sponsor me. Basically, the person that is most accurate at guessing my time of completion will win £40
