Story

<p>Thanks for visiting my just giving page.</p> <p>As some of you know already, Cancer has become very personal to me over the last year with my family being effected. Until now, i didn't realise just how many people are diagnosed with this illness and how insignificant it makes other little problems in your life appear.</p> <p>The staff at Weston Park Hospital have been amazing and the work they do is something which should be recognised. I want to do something to give as much back to them as i can to help them now and in the future.</p> <p>My challenge this time is a year long event. Basically i aim to run a half marathon every month of 2011. My first three runs have been pencilled in already:</p> <p>16th January - Ropsley Half Marathon (Multi Terrain) - Lincolnshire</p> <p>13th February - Liversedge Half Marathon - West Yorkshire</p> <p>13th March - Ashby 20mile road race - Leicestershire</p> <p>I raised &pound;800 last year for the british red cross and it would be awesome if i could double that this year. I need your help though so all donations will be much appreciated.</p> <p>It's a tough challenge but i won't let anyone down and come December next year, it'll all be worth it.</p> <p>Many thanks,</p> <p>Louis</p>
