Lesley’s Legendary Marathon

24th October 2017

Lesley, Managing Director of Capita, ran in the Nottingham Robin Hood marathon in support of Guts UK on the 24th of September.

She did a brilliant job and ended up raising double of what her target was. Her £841 JustGiving total was topped off with £210 from Capita, making a grand total of £1051 raised for Guts UK.

“My mum died on 23rd April, 2017 from a digestive disorder. She was in pain for many months but carried on fighting right through to the bitter end. The pain of 26.2 miles (was) nothing to what she suffered, so this is the least I can do to help support others.
Thank you for any donations.
