Story

Done! Completed Brighton Marathon. THANKS FOR THE DONATIONS SO FAR AND KEEP GIVING PLEASE! Wonderfully cheerful crowd, surprisingly good time (3:31), finishing well within the top 10% runners...Not bad for a 48 year old Papa' with dodgy knees.

When Olympic gold medalist Haile Gebrselassie was a small child he remembers feeling like running about when happy. Movement is life. Joint pain gets in the way, but with the help of carers life with arthritis can become easier.

My lovely wife has just had her hip replaced and my oldish wobbly knees may need some restoration soon.,Arthritis is ugly but can be managed. Please donate to the Childrens Arthritis Trust to help them help children in pain.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. No strings attached. So please dig deep and donate now.

Our goal is to strengthen the medical team by the provision of dedicated specialists in nursing and physiotherapy; and support staff to enable doctors to administer new and novel treatments to better manage the disease.
