My story

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

On the 24th May starting at 6am I will be taking on the challenge of running one of Britain's hardest ultra marathons.

The Grand Union Canal Race (GUCR) is run from the centre of Birmingham to the centre of London along the Grand Union Canal. Competitors are required to complete the 145 mile distance within the time limit of 45 hours. The event is non stop and I will be disqualified if I stop for more than 40mins at any checkpoint.

I aim to finish the race under 35hours.

Please donate money to this great fund.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Barchester Healthcare Foundation 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.
