Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In January I'll be running 100km to support a good mate John Mitchell who is doing the unthinkable & running 100km in ONE DAY in January!. My effort isn't a patch on his but I can guarantee that I'll be pushing myself more than I ever have.

All donations will be in aid of 'The Hannah hundred'.

The Hannah 100 was set up in honour of John's wonderful daughter Hannah an 18 year old girl from Ipswich. Hannah has had  quadriplegic cerebral palsy since birth and requires dedicated daily care for the simple activities the rest of us take for granted. She has been fortunate enough to benefit from the amazing care provided by Zest at St Elizabeths Hospice. If you are lucky enough to ever meet Hannah you will be immediately captivated by her warm smile, and  infectious giggles. She enjoys music, movies and disco lights. Hannah has always benefited from great care and in-spite  of being tube fed and confined to wheelchair she leads a full life going on  country walks, horse riding , sailing and cycling. Zest helps young adults like Hannah to be the best that they can be while also ensuring she gets the best of care and her family and carers  get the support they need. If Hannah could speak she would be telling you to get up off that  couch, accept the challenge  and sweat out the 100km for her and all her friends at  Zest.

Thanks again for your support from both John & myself.
