Story

Its 16 years since Alissa and I managed to last run, (or drag ourselves), successfully around 26.2miles. The memory of the pain has now faded so much that we are feeling mad enough to do it all again. We have a few more years on the clock, but feel that the training of being together for 20 years and  raising three children means we are far better prepared for a gruelling, mentally tortuous, emotionally exhausting event than we were all those years ago. We might be a bit older, but we have resilience in the bank, and we know that with your support we can dig deep and get round again. 

We are running for Get Kids Going.  Get Kids Going! is a national charity which gives disabled children and young people - up to the age of 26 yrs - the wonderful opportunity of participating in sport. They provide them with specially built sports' equipment so they can do all manner of sports, from athletics to powerlifting and they support children with all disabilities and from all backgrounds. No other charity in the UK focuses on helping disabled children and young people with sport in the same way. With your help many can become world record holders and paralympic champions

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
