Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I have been inspired to raise funds for Parkinsons UK by a good friend and colleague who has recently been diagnosed with Parkinsons. While there has been progress in treating the symptons there is still no cure, so anything I can do, no matter how big or small, to help support those caring for people with Parkinsons and fund those trying to find a cure will help.
To do this I will be running the Reading Half Marathon in March 2011. Running a half marathon is a huge test for me, I overcame back issues to trek up a mountain and now feel it's time to step this up to running. As with the mountain trek, I know that your support will really help to keep me motivated and push me through any barriers I hit.
I would like to raise as much money as possible for a society that is so supportive to its members and their families as well as researching long term cures.
So please dig deep and donate anything that you can.
