Story

<p>What have you signed up to now you might ask&hellip;I know I know this may well be the single most silly adventure I have ever entertained but nonetheless I shall be attempting and completing (even if I do have to crawl over the line) THE BRIGHTON MARATHON on the 15th of April 2099!!! Ok so actually im doing it this year 2012.</p> <p>A few weeks ago I decided to close my eyes and see how it felt to walk on the pavement&hellip;the result was panic and I opened my eyes, but not everyone has the luxury of opening their eyes to see clearly!! How would you get on with your eyes closed?!</p> <p>Im going to be raising funds for goalball uk which a good friend kindly introduced me too and I had the pleasure of meeting our GB team and these guys are awesome, being visually impaired brings a whole host of different challenges and obstacles to the table all of which I feel so often goes un-noticed.&nbsp;The paralympics is fast approaching and this is an amazing opportunity for our athletes to showcase their talent and with our support we really can help current athletes and potential future stars believe in themselves and help give them the opportunities they deserve.</p> <p>Any donations no matter how big or small would be truly awesome and most appreciated.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
