As most of you are aware sixteen years ago I was diagnosed with Parkinsons Disease and have been fighting it since that time.

At the begining of this year I set myself the challenge of running  in one of the fun runs and together with my trainer we set about trying to reach a point where I would be able to achieve this goal.

Last Sunday the opportunity arose and I felt that I could do the run and 5km didn't seem as daunting as it previously did.My time for running  5km was 36 minutes.

I would like to thank my cousin Jake for picking me up and taking .me to the venue.

I also want to thank Neil, my trainer for giving up his morning to come and support me and give me a lift home.and for pushing me to believe in myself that I could achieve this goal.

Finally unfortunately my Aunt passed away in the week preceeding the run and I decided to do it in her memory .

Now it's over to you to make whatever donation you like and thanks in advance .
