<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #008000;">Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. </span>
<p> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #008000;">When I started this fundraising year, my nan was bravely battling against cancer. Like so many people, she sadly lost her fight on the 6th March 2010. She was an incredible woman who fought like hell and never once complained or moaned about what she was going through. As part of my plans for the year and in memory of my nan, I am aiming to raise money for the Macmillan Cancer Support who offer vital support for both the suffers and families of this horrible disease. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #008000;">Instead of just doing one sponsored event I am embarking on what I am calling “Lee’s year of pain”! For those of you who know me, in the last year I have re-discovered exercise after 14 years of laziness!! and have taken part in my first triathlon as well as various other races and events. </span></p>
