Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In February 2011, I suffered a major heart attack from a near complete blockage of my left anterior descending artery. The cardiology team at Heath Hospital Cardiff saved my life that night - and passed me on to the care of the British Heart Foundation rehabilitation team.

Their care helped me to recover from the trauma and rebuild my life (a heart attack at 36 years old is physically and mentally devastating) - I am now an active member of Parc Bryn Bach running club and have planned several events this year to raise money for the BHF and the valuable work their researchers, nurses and rehabilitation teams do for patients, young and old, with heart conditions.

Events booked so far:

Xtreme Winter Warrior (10km obstacle race at Donington Park)

Pontypool 10k

Parc Penallta 'Reverse 10' (10 mile multi-terrain race)

Berlin 'Big 25' (25km road race)

Caerphilly 10km

Cardiff Half Marathon

Rursee 16.5km - Eifel Mountains, Germany

More will follow throughout the year!
