Story

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

I've never ran far in my life, but recently now on a fitness drive and gradually increasing the running.. In fact this is run was pretty good.. I'm now aiming for the Robin Hood Half Marathon with my mate Fraser, who'll be the guy a bit behind me on the run... ;)  In fact I've lost over 3 stone now..

Our son Sam was diagnosed with a Brain Tumour in 2004.  Then 11 he has had 3 operations at QMC in Nottingham and has regular scans.  More research is needed into Brain Tumours and thats why Im raising money here hopefully.  We raised over £2,000 doing other things in the past but more is needed.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Children's Brain Tumour Research 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.

THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR YOUR SUPPORT.  I managed the Half Marathon with a time of 1:53:35!  The results are over here.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
