MND is such a bloody horrible disease that still has no cure and affects more people than you think. Unfortunately it is something my nan, June Fletcher suffered with, and more recently a close friend Luke Taylor has lost his mum Julia to this awful illness. I am running this marathon to show my support and raise awareness in the hope that eventually a cure can be found!

After reading Rob Burrow’s book and hearing about his story, he is nothing short of incredible and has inspired me to lace up the old trainers again. Plus I couldn’t let Luke run it all on his own, knowing that I could also support this worthy cause.

This will not be easy, especially with two little lads hampering my training… but is nothing in comparison to what MND sufferers are doing day in day out. 

I hope that you can support this amazing charity and cause by donating anything you are able to. The MND Association  and I personally really appreciate your generosity.

Thank you.
