My story

If you've come across this page then the chances are you know me and if you know me you will know that my grandfather passed away a few months a go.

'Lodge' as he was known was the biggest inspiration in my life and I liked to look at him as my best friend, always there to help me and he would have done anything for me.

2 years before he passed away he was diagnosed with lung cancer. Finding out he had lung cancer was the hardest thing I have ever had to cope with in my life.

I had so many good times with him, times I will never forget, before and after he was diagnosed.

I wanted to raise some money for the Roy Castle foundation which is to my knowledge the only charity that is specifically for fighting lung cancer. 

If by doing this run and raising this money I am able to help one person, whether it be have some treatment they otherwise could not afford, have one last holiday or anything to enrich somebodys life who has been devistated by cancer I will feel satisfied. 

So please, no matter the amount find it within yourself to donate something.
