Story

Hello and welcome to my just giving page. 

As I've entered my 30s I've come to realise I'm not as fit as I used to be and that my bad habits are slowly starting to take their toll on my body so something had to change. Those that know me well will know that I each time I attempt to join a gym or similar I very quickly fall off the wagon. 

To combat this I've decided to take on the challenge of running a half marathon and hope that this will force me to make the lifestyle change that I need. 

To aid with this I've also decided  to try and raise a little money for a good cause and cancer research was a no brainer.  The dreaded C word has effected my family and friend's in numerous ways as I'm sure it has yours too. One day I hope a cure will be found and our loved ones won't be taken from us before its their time. 

Now I don't intend to ram a fundraising sheet down your throat or ask you to buy a slice of cake but I will ask for you to donate a little something. A little something to keep me motivated and a little something to hopefully change to what we know about this awful disease and give us the breakthrough we need. 

I've set a target of £1000 but if I raise £2.50 or £2500 it will all go to a good cause.
