Story
For those of you who know me, I am built for comfort not for Speed, and every once in a while I like to push the boundaries, I have been lucky enough to have been given an opportunity to run the London Marathon, to raise money for the charity for which I have a close connection, We will also be bringing a Gin out for the event and all proceeds from the sales will go towards the charity.
The Matt Hampson Foundation inspires and supports young people seriously injured through sport through its Get Busy Living Centre in rural Leicestershire. The centre provides expert physiotherapy, specialist personal training, support, mentoring and advice to people suffering a life-changing injury.The centre’s doors were opened in 2018 and is the brainchild of founder and ex-England and Leicester Tigers rugby player Matt Hampson, who himself experienced a life-changing injury in 2005 leaving him paralysed from the neck down, aged just 20.
I hope you will sponsor my journey and follow us as we approach the race and my journey from couch to marathon
