Peter's London Marathon 2023

London Marathon 2023 · 23 April 2023
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
So here goes.......
Be it through boneheadedness, boredom, bravery or downright bloody mindedness I have decided that this is the year I will overcome something that has been on my bucketlist for a long time and run the London Marathon.
To say this will be both a mental and physical challenge would be an understatement. I have never been a "fit" man but having started running in June 2022 i have found that it provided me with the headspace that i need to cope with what life throws at me.
But it goes without saying that I will not just be doing this to overcome my own mental barriers.......
This challenge will give me the opportunity to raise money for The Helen Rollason Cancer Charity based in Hatfield Peveral. We have all been touched by this wicked disease in some way or another. To find a cure is of course very important but this charity provides something that a lot of us perhaps dont often think about : complimentry therapies for patients, a place to go to get some respite from reality for a while, a cup of tea with someone going through a similar situation. Basically much needed support for people whose lives are touched by cancer.
Helen Rollason Cancer Charity relies on peoples generous donations and fundraising in order to operate their support centres across Essex and London.
Please give what you can. Every single penny will push me to get over that finish line and whatever the size of your donation will help to continue to support people living with cancer.
