We fund biomedical research into ME to create a strategy for cure/treatment

Story

Many of you are aware that my wife Lisa has suffered from ME for around 8 years and I would like to raise funds for proper biomedical research into this horrible debilitating disease.

I have entered this event, of which, to be honest, I have no idea what to expect. Whilst I run I have no idea how long I can run for. This event could go on for anywhere between 2 hours and 24 hours or longer, completing 4.2 miles every hour, with the last person left winning and everyone else earning a did not finish medal.   This is not a natural event for me so it will be a real challenge. One I want to complete whilst more importantly raising funds to try and help find a cure for this disease that arrived uninvited and unwelcome at our door.   

Lisa and I really appreciate your interest and support whether that is monetary or not.

My run is only a small thing  the real hero here is Lisa who copes with so much pain and fatigue on a daily basis but yet still has cares and looks after us all so well ❤️

Any amount of support would be appreciated.
