The big day is almost here, I'm nervous and excited. Had my last training run today. Thanks to all who have donated.

6 weeks to go until the half marathon and I'm nervous as hell. I really need to increase my distance.

6 weeks to go. Nervous as hell, need to get my distance up!!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am a 29 year old from Cheslyn Hay in Staffordshire married to my wonderful wife Hayley, daddy to 2 year old Henry and with a second baby on the way (due on 30th April 2012). 

I will be running in the Lichfield half marathon on 6th May 2012 (very close to Hayley's due date I know!) 

In June 2011 I decided that my unhealthy life style was not a good example to set to my son and watching my Grandad losing his long and hard fought battle with kidney failure showed me that life is too short and I should make more effort to be fit and healthy. The time had come to lose some weight and get fit.

In 6 months I have gone from almost 18 stone and unable to run a mile to just under 14 stone and able to run a 10KM race in less than an hour. There is a long way to go but each day brings an improvement and a fresh challenge.

So why choose Make-A-Wish Foundaion UK? My Mom Angela is an incredible person who has lots to give to our family and anyone else who needs her help. Mom has been volunteering with Make-A-Wish for some time and spends her free time fundraising and meeting children and young people with life threatening illnesses and helping arrange for their wishes to come true. Any parent will tell you that the most important thing in the world is their children so when I decided to challenge myself to get fit and healthy I wanted Make-A-Wish to benefit.
