Story

I hope its of interest but my story starts on Christmas eve 2003, I had run 29 full marathons by then when I was told I had testicular cancer not the best timing having the whole family around for Christmas day. Couldn't say anything to them, why spoil their day until a few days later when I went into hospital, only my wife Carol knew. Read Simon's story   

STOP PRESS  Already passed my target of 26 Marathons - 34 and still going strong...!!! 

STOP PRESS (Jan 09) - I have been awarded an MBE in the New Years Honours List.

STOP PRESS (Aug 09) - On Sunday 13th September I run my 100th Marathon. Please sponsor me

Check here for my race diary and photographs of the events i have completed.

I want to; 

To raise as much money as possible for Cancer Research.

Raise awareness of Cancers especially the importance of early diagnosis & treatment.

Inspire, through Faith, all of us who have been personally touched by this dreadful disease.

Please give generously.
thankyou
Simon
