I will be running the 26.2 mile marathon on the 15th April 2007 in Paris to support a charity that is changing people's lives as we speak.

Have you ever been to another country and watched a game of football or rugby and thought to your self 'If only that young kid had the chance compete internationally, just imagine how great they could be'? Now is your chance to help them follow their dreams. There is so much talent out there that is not being nurtured.

Touraid, which was launched in November, gives the opportunity to young people from disadvantaged backgrounds the chance to come to the UK to play rugby.

Touraid is establishing links between schools and clubs in the UK and the disadvantaged rugby nations to provide educational, cultural and social development. Touraid is backed by Mike Catt, Dean Richards, John Inverdale & Chester Williams. Successful tours have already taken place with visiting teams from Uganda and Serbia.

Help us to make a difference and give those who don't have the chance to become greater.

We are aiming to make 875 pounds. Your donation no matter how small can make the world of difference to a little boys life.
