Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Sofia was born on 11 May 2011 with a heart condition called Tetralogy of Fallot. &nbsp;It is a very common form of heart disease, however it requires heart surgery to have a chance of correcting the condition.</p> <p>On 20 October Sofia had her operation, and thanks to the amazing efforts of all the staff at Bristol Children's Hospital, &nbsp;she has made a fantastic recovery. &nbsp;</p> <p>I am running this race to raise money for the hospital as a way to say thank you to the team at BCH for saving <em>our</em> little girl's life, but also for all the other litttle girls &amp; boys who might need BCH some time. The money raised will make life a little easier for patients and parents having long stays in the ward- the facilities were a godsend to us.</p> <p>Those that know me will understand what a challenge this will be! 13 miles for a guy who has avoided exercise for the last 20 years!&nbsp;</p> <p>Come on, dig deep, come along and support me (or have a giggle at me on the verge of collapse!)</p> <p>Thanks very much</p> <p>Stuart, Karina, Eva &amp; Sofia x</p> <p>Clan Calder&nbsp;</p>
