Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

As most of you know either by my near 4 stone weight loss or limping everywhere like skippy I am going to complete the Manchester run for Henshaws who do so much vital work for the blind. Being 36 with a dodgy right knee its involved a lot of dedication and focus. And its taken a lot of other peoples time, those who have helped me along the way, you know who you are and I will always be grateful. I have made some key decisions over the last few months, life's too short not to feel a buzz of some form. Without you all I would not be in shape I am in after a year of pizza and netflix I really needed to shape up and back up the decision to move on.

Fav quote "The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is mere tenacity"

I am running it with the lovely Alexandra who gives me the ultimate belief in myself, if I have to crawl the last 2k I will. We have both trained hard during the cold winter months so please give what you can, the charity, me and Alexandra will be eternally grateful.
