Story

Hi and thanks for taking the time to logon to my fundraising page.

Midlife crisis has kicked in and its time to turn into Forrest Gump - well it was either that or a young blonde or sports car...... come to think of it why am I doing this again?!

Well the main reason of course is for the worthy causes; my main sponsor is Good Grief, a relatively small but very worthy charity that relies on your donations to help provide much needed support to families who have suffered a bereavement.  I am also donating a proportion of my sponsorship to Cancer Research, something I'm sure that has touched all of our lives at some point.

All I have to do is run a mere 26.2 miles and suffer the embarrassment of being overtaken by giant bears and the like...!

Whatever you can donate will be much appreciated however small, and dont forget to add Gift Aid which makes a big difference.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Good Grief gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation

Thanks for you support and of course I'll let you know how I do (unless of course I collapse half way round!)

many thanks

Richard
