Royal Parks Foundation Half marathon · 6 October 2013 ·
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I have decided to enter this half marathon due to my Dad experiencing enormous problems with his heart over the past few months.
He is miraculously on the road to recovery from 2 major open heart operations that took place within a 4 week period of each other.
The incredible surgeon and all of his team were able to save his life by completing an aortic root and valve replacement and closing some ruptures.
Whilst my Dad was fighting for his life, we were surrounded by so much support not only for him, but our family as well. It has truly been inspirational.
A way for me to say thank you to the outstanding quality of care he received, and to everyone’s endless support and love; I would like to run this for him, for anyone who has had heart problems themselves, or experienced it happen to a loved one.
The money I raise will be going to the great charity, ‘British Heart Foundation’.
The BHF are fighting back through life saving research, so any donation, big or small, always makes a huge difference and is greatly appreciated.
Thanks again, it means so much.
