Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Well, the first bit has been completed, and I think it was even tougher than I imagined - but still posted a sub 2 hour time for my first half marathon, and have to be pleased with that. Next up is the small matter&nbsp;of the Dragon Ride, on Sunday&nbsp;June 5th. This is going to be a&nbsp;200 km cycle&nbsp;event&nbsp;around Wales, which is not&nbsp;too flat apparently, and is bound to prove more than a little difficult.</p> <p>I'm doing this in aid of the West of England School for young people with little or no sight.</p> <p>It's a fantastic cause, which needs all the help it can get. So for all the effort I'm putting into training and the pain of the run, it pales into insignificance against the work that all concerned with the school put in on a daily basis.</p> <p>I'm hoping that you can spare as much as you can towards this totally worthy cause.&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
