Story

Last year my mum who was an active, healthy person suffered a stroke. The impact on her life and on those around her has been changed dramatically. She's now completely lost her independence and relies on 24 hour support.

As it's Olympic year and I'm a keen runner, I'll be running 10 marathons to raise money for the Stroke Association. I have just completed my 10th & final race at the French Marathon des Alpes-Maritimes (Nice-Cannes) on Sunday 4th November. All entry fees and travel have been funded by myself so all your money will go straight to the charity.

Taking up a 10 marathon challenge for 2012 is the least I can do to raise money. They help my mum and others like her and also fund vital research. I'm also hoping to raise awareness of this cruel condition. Hopefully leading to prevention in the future.
My list of races is below.
