In 2012 I took the decision to push myself for two reasons.
I wanted to kick start my fitness and raise awareness and £870 funding for Chest, Heart & Stroke by completing the Great North Run 1/2 marathon, Newcastle.

2017 I plan to push myself for almost the same 2 reasons.
Kick start my fitness (again) and raise funding for the below 3 charities organisations. I am very lucky to have good health and not be effected by any of theses great causes but who knows what is around the corner. If i can get you to click on the links and read some of the stories then maybe you could contribute a small amount and read some peoples not so fortunate journeys in life.
