Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Ged's 65th b'day Half Marathon

I started running for my 60th birthday targeting the GMR 10K in 60 mins. Now 5 years on and I'm celebrating my 65th with the GMR Half Marathon. As it's about twice a 10k I’m going for twice my age so targeting 130min, we’ll see!

I am running mainly for fun but as this one is hurting and taking a lot of effort training I feel ok asking people for sponsorship to give me that extra push and it is a great cause.

St Ann's Hospice provide remarkable care and comfort for those in their last days and their families and friends. Though this page is dedicated to my Mum, Margaret, I also remember Sheila Waddington, a classmate at primary school who I had just got to know again when she became ill in 2012 and spent her final days in St Ann's care.

Keep up to date with my progress at my blog here Ged65.
