Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. After 5 months of training covering over 900KM I'm finally ready and dare I say it looking forward to the Berlin Marathon on 28 September 2008. Thanks to those who gave me support, advice  and encouragement up to this date and put up with my aches and pains when I over did it.

I've chosen to sponsor the Prostate Cancer charity because my father was cured of the disease several years ago. In the UK Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men. 35,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every year. One man dies every hour of prostate cancer.  So please sponsor me now!
