Story

Hello!!

Thanks for visiting my page.  Here is a funny picture of my best friend Ben and I on top of a lighthouse in Dungeoness - where we went for a little day trip a few years ago.  He wouldn't let me ride on the miniature railway, but i had a great time anyway.  I am going to attempt to run the marathon in April in Ben's memory.  Ben only did things because they were difficult, and he was always a great support to me and my fledgling running career - offering me all sorts of useful advice like 'cover your whole body in ibuprofen gel' and 'wear flight socks at all times' - so running 26.2 miles seems like a good thing to do - and i want to beat his time from the New York marathon!  I'm raising money for the British Forces Foundation who organise events to boost the morale of our troops.  This is something i know Ben could do single handedly, and want to support them in their very important work.  Thank you for your support - it means the world to me and I'm sure it would to Ben too.
