Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I ran the GNR for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People last year, and at the end they let me pat a nice dog. I wish to repeat the experience. And raise money for this fantastic charity.
I said I'd never do another marathon after my first (and I assured everyone, my last) in 2013. It was the hardest thing I'd ever done. But then I was diagnosed with cancer. Now in remission, my perspective has changed somewhat. The best moments in life come when you've truly earned something. And I want to conquer the Yorkshire Marathon in under 4 hours, just to say that I can.
