Hey guys, thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page...

                      I am aiming to raise £1000 for Macmillan Cancer Support by competing in two half marathons and one full marathon all in a 5 week adventure. It all kicks off in Edinburgh on the 18th April 2010 where I'll be running the Chris Hoy half marathon and aiming to complete it in 1hour 30-35 minutes. Two weeks later will be in Vancouver, Canada to take part in the Van half marathon on 2nd May 2010. On my return to wee bonny Scotland I will be running the Scottish full marathon on the 23rd May 2010 and if I raise over £1000 I will run it as Maverick off top gun! ;)

I have chosen to raise money for Macmillan Cancer support as many of us have been affected by Cancer in some shape or form. I have close friends who have had loved ones taken away from them and I cant imagine what they went through. Unfortunately I never had the chance to meet my Grandfather Peter as he died due to Cancer before I was born on 6th January 1979. My mother and her family went through a really tough time and support from charities like Macmillan was not readily available due to financial reasons..

I want to help to make their brilliant work continue and grow so that people can feel the benefit of their compassion when it's needed most in their lives. Cancer now affects one in three people in the UK, so  at sometime we will all be affected by it either directly or indirectly through family members, friends or loved ones.. so please please make a donation whether it be £1 or £10

 

Thanks for your time!
