Hello and thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page..
As many of you know, but for those that didn't, about 5/6 years ago I decided (with much prompting from Vicki) to try and get a little healthier. This was an interesting task given that I was the wrong side of 35, overweight, drinking like a fish and chuffing on 40 a day!
Spurred on by an upcoming beach holiday and insane vanity, I started on a journey of discovery - waistline, fresh breath, wardrobe and sensory revival to name but a few...
Within a short time I became hooked on the whole health kick carry on and even joined a gym. This new found love soon became obsession and without my dose of endorphins and sweaty gym kit at the start of every day I was without cause.
As the body and mind started to accept their fate, I decided to take up new challenges and competition to push for athletic prowess! Now, with a few achievements under my belt, 2010 is the year that will set new personal levels of performance.
As part of this years programme I shall be running the London Marathon for a very worthy cause.. Shelter is a national charity supporting the homeless people of the UK.
In these worrying times, I realise that giving to charity can be difficult when we all have our own to look after, but I believe that by asking you to donate for this one event will be money well spent and received.
So, please dig deep and donate now... Your support is greatly appreciated and my sincere thanks in advance.
