Hello, thank you for visiting my page, my name is Chris I am 22, in April with the aid of my great Sighted Guide Amanda, this will be my 3rd London Marathon.
Since the age of 13 RP has effected me, resulting in gradual sight loss, despite this I now eat and sleep Paratriathlon with the aid of sighted guides. For me this proves that even through tough times, if you put your mind to it you can still do anything. Often having something positive to focus on, is the best way to cope.
The marathon is an amazing event. To stand proud with 36,000 other individuals who are running for a range of reasons and often like myself to raise money and awareness for charities close to their hearts, gives an amazing sense of pride and huge satisfaction.
Thank you for your donation which will aid in the on-going important work fo RP Fighting Blindness with their work into supporting individuals with sight loss to research into a cure and treatments for Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP).
Thank you Once again and if you see me and Amanda either on the route of telly please do tell us either via twitter of @cmachine or Facebook
Thank you very much for your support and donations
Chris :)
