London Classics Plus · 8 August 2019

Back Up services include mentoring, wheelchair skills training and activity courses as well as support in getting back to work or school after an injury. We provide peer led tailored support to help people adjust to a spinal cord injury and inspire independence and confidence for a positive future.

Story

We sit all day, everyday in this business but that's our choice. We then choose to go home and sit and do nothing. Again, that's our choice. There are so many who don't get that choice. When we decide to not move, not run, not walk it really only impacts ourselves. It impacts our health which has longer term issues but, generally, its really just us that feel the impact.

What happens if that's what you know and then, out of no-where its no longer a choice? What if you suddenly realise that for the rest of your life this will impact you, your friends and your closest family? How do you even start to deal with such a dramatic change in circumstance?

That's why I have chosen to do something I really never thought I would do lets alone 2 things I never thought I would do. Over the next year I will be doing the following events and I really have no idea how this goes:

Oct 2019 - Royal Parks Half Marathon ***DONE***
Apr 2020 - London Marathon
Aug 2020 - Prudential Ride London
Sep 2020 - Swim Serpentine

Anything, large or small, will make a difference. It doesn't change my life, it changes the lives of those who need it. Sure, there will be tears, blisters, more tears, chafing, bleeding but, hopefully it ends with a nice pot of cash for a great cause. 

Cheers,
