Hi - Apologies if this is not the correct forum for this message but I just wanted to drum up some sponsorship for a cycle challenge which I am taking part in later this year.

My Nan passed away in Dec 2008 after a short illness and I have now made it my aim in life to raise as much money as i possible can for the Mouth Cancer Foundation.

I need to raise a fair amount to take part in this challenge and have got off to a good start. If you would like to sponsor me I would be really grateful just visit www.justgiving.com/marcusoughton

Hello Marcus
I can barely breathe for the lump in my throat!
I know EXACTLY where you are coming from.
I have checked out your justgiving page and will donate before it closes.
I had the great honour of starting off the walk in September and my trek was to honour my husband's memory. It's a pretty special thing you are doing and I wish you the very best and loads of success.
Cheers from Down Under

Hey Marcus,

I contributed a small amount to your run and it looks like you're going to meet your goal easily. Time to raise the bar!

Not only are you compassionate and sincere, but good grief, bro! You're drop-dead gorgeous! George Clooney has met his match.

Take care, buddy. (Whew. I got all clammy there for a moment.)

Hi Deborah,


Thanks so much for your reply and your support. I remember you being mentioned at last years walk for making it all the way over from Australia!

Hi Mimi - Thanks so very much for your donation and for the compliment! Photoshop is an amazing bit of software

Ride should be challenging and hopefully I can smash the £2k mark well before the date!

Take care - Marcus

Only four days to go until I embark on my 180 mile cycle challenge. I have exceeded my target and now raised £2,005 but any more sponsorship would be much appreciated - www.justgiving.com/marcusoughton

Hi Marcus
This date seemed a lifetime away when you first posted about it! Have just donated. Thanks for the reminder.
All the very best and happy travels. I hope you've toughened up all those 'saddle' bits!!!!!
Cheers from Down Under

Hi Deborah,
Thank you so much for your sponsorship - it is really appreciated. I will be posting an update/mini blog on my just giving page on my return so be sure to check out how it went.
Once again many thanks - Marcus
