Story

Thanks for visiting my Justgiving page.

Now, I could start by making up a really cheesy story about how great I am and how I just love running SOOO MUCH...miles and miles every week.....but that would definitely be a stretch.

The truth is that running a marathon has been on the ‘ole bucket list for years and needs to get a checkbox. If I was brighter I would have ticked that box about 20 years ago! I can assure you I won’t be running any more or turning into an ultra-marathoner or anything as insane as that.

However, I am running for a great charity called the Sussex Heart Charity (SHC) and my aim is to raise £2,500 for this terrific organisation.

This year, one of the most important projects SHC has underway is trying to raise £100,000 to fund the placement of 70 Automated External Defibrillators (AED’s) at all railway stations in their region. These life saving devices have a direct impact and increase the chances of survival of anyone suffering a cardiac arrest.

Please donate as little or as much as you can to support me & my charity.

You never fully realise when you start these things just how tough training for a marathon is (especially as we all still think we are 21 years old...!); or just how much it takes over your life.

I really appreciate everyone's support and I hope to see some of you along the route on Marathon Day.

Cheers,

Tony

P.S. Don’t worry about waking up early on April 23rd or turning on the telly too early....you’ll have hours & hours to see me......;-)
