My story

OK- I'm keeping this simple.  And for those of you that know me well, that's no mean feat.

My main motivation to run this year's marathon is to raise money for a very close friend that is sadly fighting terminal cancer.  The money raised will help ensure he recieves the best level of care he can, for as long as possible.

Huge thanks go to the Dogs Trust, who have allowed me to run as part of their team this year.  I must raise a MINIMUM of £1500 for them, before I can donate to my friend, so please all dig deep for what are two very good causes.

More information is of course available if you contact me directly. Text or Call me on 07919 173738- or facebook / e-mail me.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly, and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.

So please dig deep and donate now... as much as you can possibly spare.  PS- Don't forget the personal messages to keep me encouraged!!  It's BL**DY cold out there at the moment, and these legs and lungs won't train themselves!
