<strong>Virgin</strong> <strong>London</strong> <strong>Marathon</strong> - <strong>Human</strong> <strong>Interest</strong> <strong>2010</strong><br />
David<br />
Lebus<br />
<strong>London</strong> 49440<br />
David Lebus has a special reason for running for Wellbeing of<br />
Women in the <strong>2010</strong> <strong>Virgin</strong> <strong>London</strong> <strong>Marathon</strong> – his mother.<br />
His mum, Christina, was the director of Wellbeing (as was) from<br />
1997-1999, she was fiercely proud of the charity and even in the<br />
short time she was director, made a big difference to its success.<br />
Sadly in 1999 she became very ill and died.<br />
David says “She cared hugely about the charity and what they<br />
were trying to achieve. It was a great frustration to her that<br />
being ill stopped her from carrying on the work that she so<br />
enjoyed and felt so strongly about. I want to raise money for<br />
WoW, not just in memory of Mum, but also as a thank you for<br />
the motivation and the inspiration that her memory provides<br />
every day, whether I’m running a marathon or not.<br />

Gary is running the marathon as a 'T' bag. Gary's wife is fantastic<br />
with making her own clothes and is going to be making Gary's<br />
costume after he sourced some suitable material. Gary will be<br />
running around his local streets to get some further support and<br />
raise awareness.<br />
