I completed the challenge today (Friday 24th Sep 2010) - 26 miles in 1hr 55min.
Thank you to all of you who sponsored me, your generosity will make a difference to people you may never meet but know that ASPIRE will use the money in ways that make a difference.
I don't know all of you who sponsored me ... special thanks to you :-)...
YOU CAN STILL DONATE.... Do pass on the address to this page of anyone you think may still want to give.
26 miles the distance of the London Marathon but in the gym. I'll be using a hand cycle / krank cycle to cover the distance and hope to do it in one day ... fingers crossed! The official dates set by ASPIRE are 13th - 26th Sep 2010.
As someone who has worked for ASPIRE and a wheelchair user myself I know that every pound raised will make a difference for those with a spinal cord injury. Help me make a difference...
This will be a challenge for me, I had major spinal surgery in the summer of 2008 and am now the proud owner of 3 metal rods and fair few screws and hooks. X-rays available on request ;-)
I'll keep you up dated on my progress.
