Thanks for the donations peeps, I take it you saw the not so flattering pic in the adver, not long now, hope to see some of you cheering me on the day, then beers and a big fat cheese burger for after.

Thanks to every one for donating, I've been putting in the training and can't wait till the race day. X

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As some of you may or may not know my brother tragically passed away on 16th March this year of a heart attack. Kevin was only 37 years young, was a single parent and has left behind 2 beautiful daughters, Shannon aged 14 and Lauren aged 12. 

Kevin lived with diabetes most of his life and has allways been my insperation as a person. He was keen runner from an early age, and I was allways trying to keep up with him.

I think it is only fitting that I run the swindon half marathon in memory of him. 

I will try and keep you updated with how my training and fund raising are going.

Please donate what you can, and if you see me out running the streets of Swindon please give me toot.
