Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I decided last year that 2014 would be the year that I challenged myself physically and mentally whilst hopefully making some money for a worthwhile cause.

As some of you know my dad was affected by an illness known as Guillian Barre Syndrome (GBS) many years ago. The illness can have a devastating affect on a person’s life including those around them.

The illness is relatively uncommon and funding into research minimal so I have decided to undertake the following torture in order to raise some cash for gain who supports those directly affected by the illness. The plan is to run the London marathon in April, do the London to Brighton bike ride in June and probably get killed in an event called Tuff Mudder in July (John I hate you for that).

I appreciate cash is tight at the moment and so don't intend asking you for donations each time I participate in an event so will only beg once. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can you donate some cash to make the pain worthwhile.
