Story

As many of you know, my best friend Aaron Lewis was killed in Afghanistan on the 15th December 2008. Since then, many people that were close to him have been involved in charity fundraising, and now it is time for me to play my part. Aaron was a massive inspiration to me and to many, and although 26.2 miles isn't that impressive, it's a pretty good place to start!

I'm sure you will all agree that The Soldiers' Charity is a great and worthy cause, and every donation will be greatly appreciated. Motivation through the winter is going to be lacking, so your donations and support will always be well received.

These brave people are fighting to make our country safer. They are fighting for us! So, lets give something back to them and to their families who are often forgotten. 

Thank you for your support and I look forward to seeing you there!
