Joss's Lee Valley Velopark Half Marathon page

Thanks for visiting my page. I'm raising money for the British Heart Foundation's research and I'd be so grateful for your support.
So if you know me, you know I’m hugely into my health and fitness, so I want to encourage people to exercise more, whilst raising as much money to help a charity that helps one the most important parts of our body, our hearts. A lot of people don’t give it the time and care is needs, with food or exercise.
My dad passed away from a heart condition called hypertrophic cardiomyopathy when I was young. Around 170,000 deaths happen each year, that’s 460 a day, that’s one every 3 minutes due to heart diseases so this a towards a huge cause to to spread awareness.
The BHF has helped halve the number of people dying from heart and circulatory disease in the UK but sadly every day hundreds of people lose their lives. It's only thanks to support from people like us that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures. £24 could pay for two hours of research by an early career scientist, but every pound helps so please give what you can to help me hit my target. Thanks!
