Story

Although I had secured a place to run the London Marathon back in April of this year... because of Covid 19...I have been forced to keep it local and run the 26.2 miles from my home in Pembrokeshire. Instead of Big Ben and the Mall my route shall take in the Moors around Treiago, Llandigigi Cricket Fields, Pen Beri mountain and its surrounding farms. And why?? To raise some much needed funds for the Cure Parkinson's Trust.

Founded in 2005 by four people living with the condition, the Cure Parkinson's Trust (CPT) takes a patient-centric approach to funding innovative projects and inspirational scientists, working to modify the progression of Parkinson’s and to find a cure. At CPT we believe that we are closer than ever to delivering treatments that for the first time will slow, stop or even reverse the progression of the disease. Your donation will help us get there.
