Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Yes - Steve is running another marathon.  Boring......

But wait, this one is different.  Liz is running it too.  Yes, that's right; the same Liz who used to hate running just three years ago is actually going to run the London Marathon.  No, she doesn't really believe it either - but it's true!!!!!!!  So London April 25th here we come! 

We wanted to run for a charity that would really inspire us and there was no contest.  It had to be Help for Heroes

Ex - Army Corporal Steve is passionate about supporting the young soldiers injured in Afghanistan and Liz shares his belief in doing everything we can to help.  Steve managed to serve nine years in various locations without any more serious injury than a regular colossal hangover and he is full of admiration for the spirit and courage displayed by the men whose lives have been terribly altered by the war.  So much so that he is also running the first Brighton Marathon on April 18th, the week before London! 

So, please sponsor the pair of us.  It is a fantastic cause that you are all familiar with.  We need a big lift to get Liz round London and to motivate Steve's old legs to crack the 26 twice in a week, so please back us up.  We want to make all the training worthwhile and hand over a big cheque to H4H.  They put their lives on the line for us and the least we can do is help them out when they need us.
