Story

<p><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">Hi Everyone,</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">I have run a few marathons&nbsp;over the years, but this one is slightly different (part of a relay; running on my own; and starting out at 01:30hrs in the morning) and with the injury problems I have had these past 6 months this is going to be one hell of a challenge, so I would really&nbsp;appreciate your support.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">I have chosen this event as it is&nbsp;raising monies for a really important charity close to my heart and is also aiming to set a new World Record.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">As many of you will know, both my Mum and Uncle Brian died from brain tumours.&nbsp; Mum&nbsp;only lived for&nbsp;9 days after her diagnosis and was only 60 years old when she died, but if more knowledge and information about brain tumours had been out there then may be something&nbsp;could have been done for her months&nbsp;earlier&nbsp;when (in hindsight) her symptoms first revealed themselves.&nbsp; It is for this reason that I want to raise monies for Brain Tumour UK and help them to save others from the fate that my Mum experienced and the trauma that we as a family went through.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">If you could give generously then I would really appreciate it and all being well we'll raise a lot of money for a very worthy cause and be part of a new World Record to boot.</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">What ever you decide, thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page, and be aware that donating through&nbsp;JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
