On Sun 9th April Jo Marshall took part in the Brighton marathon.
She raised over £500, which she is splitting between two charities; Muktangan and the Brain Tumour Charity. Of her extremely impressive achievement, Jo said:
I have finally recovered - here is my finishing picture. The marathon was such an enjoyable experience - the lovely weather brought out huge crowds and created a great atmosphere. It was much hotter than any of my winter training runs which made my overall race slightly slower and harder than anticipated but it was such a great feeling crossing the finishing line!
I hope Muktangan will find the money raised useful.
Jo is hoping to visit Muktangan later in the year - where she will be able to see for herself the huge difference that her money can make to the children in Mumbai.
From all of us at Muktangan, thank you Jo!
