Story

My father-in-law, Bonnie's Dad Jim,  died of cancer in December 2015. In his last few weeks he was cared for in the  LOROS hospice. They helped him live and die without pain and with dignity in his last few weeks and cared for the family too. The amazing work that LOROS do is only partly funded by the NHS and they need, and very much deserve, supporting so they can continue to provide the care, help and support that they gave Jim and us when we needed it the most.

Both Bonnie and I are turning 40 this year so our challenge is to run 40 races. So far I'm signed up to:
