Story

So, this year I have had some bad luck, as most of you know I dislocated my knee and had to have some quite serious surgery. Well that put me out of my British title fight and also meant that any chance of success at the world championships was also a no go.

Determined as I am I have decided to take on a different fight and set myself a recovery target. I AM going to run the New York marathon on November 7th, that is 6 months from today.
Yes it will be hard, very hard, but that's what charity is all about. Giving not just what is easy or comfortable, but going that little bit further and realy feeling it. I will, so help all you can and remember that if you dont feel it it isn't charity.

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Get Kids Going! will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!
Many thanks for your support.
