Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

Having been talked into running in the wilmslow half marathon on new years eve at the Baron's castle there seemed little piont in just running for myself so having decided to  put the effort in to do this the best Charity in my opinion i could raise a few pounds for would be the Christie Hospital.

Why?

I visited Christies recently for the first time to visit a good friend who had been admitted. It was a  humbling experience to say the very least and I was struck at what a caring job staff did to make the patients as comfortable as possible. 

Without doubt Cancer will touch everyone of us in our life time in one way or another and the more money they have to care and research the better it will be for future generations in finding lasting cures for this illness.

My goal is to complete without stopping in less than 2 hours, ive done that before but was considerably younger then. However every cloud as they say in the 2 hours or less it takes me I will be basking in a Beatle fest play list on my ipod in peace, no interruptions. Could there be any better motivation to dig in in those barrier moments?  The play list is set up to last  max 2 hours as an extra incentive to complete within this time.

If you feel you can spare a few quid towards my goal for a very worthy cause id greatly appreciate it.

Run for your life. [rubber soul]
