Flora London Marathon 2006 · 23 April 2006 ·

Every day in the UK, another 240 people wake up to the catastrophic impact of a stroke. The Stroke Association is the leading charity in the UK providing lifelong support for all stroke survivors and their families.

Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!!  

As you can see, I MADE IT!!!  I do look ever so slightly drowsy in the photo, but I soon perked up after a double quarter pounder with cheese meal, a couple of beers, and a curry!!

The day was fantastic, an amazing atmosphere,  and a unbeleivable feeling crossing the finish line.

A massive thanks to everyone who has sponsored me.  Just look what we've raised for the Stroke Association!!  For those of you who would still like to contribute, IT'S NOT TOO LATE!!  This site will still take donations for a few weeks yet.

Why I ran...

I am running in memory of Ian Wells (Wella), who was tragically taken from us in January 2005, days after suffering a stroke.

The grief suffered by Ian's friends and family has been horrible.  He was a brilliant man; admired, respected and loved by many, and his presence is truly truly missed.

By raising money for the Stroke Association I am hoping that this kind of tragic loss can be prevented in the future for many potential cases.

Many thanks for all support given,

Mick
