Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit&nbsp;our JustGiving page.</p> <p>As most of you know,&nbsp;we are quite partial to a jog, swim, dive, climb&nbsp;or cycle, however running 26.2 miles is not something&nbsp;I took on lightly! (Jill however is mad enough for this to be her second time!)</p> <p>We are halfway through&nbsp;our training plan now, a half marathon under&nbsp;our belts and a 15 mile run clocked up last Sunday. Those closest to&nbsp;us will know that&nbsp;we have sacrificed a lot for the training of this, mainly booze, chocolate and a life, but only because&nbsp;we want to give&nbsp;our all for this run and the amazing charity&nbsp;we are running for.</p> <p>Cure Parkinsons have been so incredibly supportive and it is a cause which is very close to us. My (Chappers) grandma suffered with this disease for many years before her passing, and sadly 2 of&nbsp;our close friends have parents with the disease.</p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>One extra request! Please along with your wonderful good luck messages - can you suggest good running songs for&nbsp;us -&nbsp;We need to improve&nbsp;our playlist!</strong></span></p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
