Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On the 15th May this year I will be competing in the Manchester 10k to generate as much money as possible for Epilepsy Research in memory of my cousin, Lee, who was taken from us in his sleep on 12th December last year.
Lee was diagnosed with epilepsy as a child. This I imagine was quite something to take on and live with at such a young age; however this did not deter Lee, like his father becoming a true gent and sportsman. I mean this both physically through his commitment and success with his passion of both football and cricket, and in testament to his character as a person.
Anyone who knew Lee would have soon learned that his club was Leeds United, of which he was extremely passionate and vocal of. As a fellow Leeds supporter, it was refreshing to see when looking at the Manchester 10k course map there is an opportunity for runners to cleanse and shower after running past Old Trafford, something I know Lee would have approved of.
