Story

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page!

Please join me in raising vital funds to support serving men and women, veterans and families who will call on SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity for help in time of need.

I'm an experienced Half Marathon runner already so to make this more of a challenge I will be competing in period British WW2 Battledress as would've been worn in the local area in the Second World War. This will include 17kg of webbing, small pack and ammo boots - hobnails depending on the weather!

I thought I'll combine the idea of fitness and heritage to raise some money for a brilliant charity.

Many thanks!
