I hope to run 182 miles, the equivalent of 7 marathons in 7 weeks. This will be my longest run, having done just over 100 miles in the month of August for the Teenage Cancer Trust. Unfortunately injuries have prevented me running since.
My 15 year old son, is aiming to do 50 miles with me whilst working around his Wakefield Trinity Scholarship commitments.
So I aim to raise awareness & funds to support the MND Charity.
Unfortunately I know two people both of which are suffering with MND through the Sport I love, Play and Coach.
First is Leeds Rhinos "Legend" Rob Burrows, I've come across Rob a number of times. Even tho I don't know him personally, Rob is always smiling and happy to talk.
The second my friend and former Lindley Swifts "Legend" Shane Whitaker. Shane is one of the nicest, friendliest person you'll ever meet.
Rob and Shane are both great family men, just like myself and share the love and passion for Rugby League. Hopefully the RL family will come together to support the MND Charity, Rob and Shane.
