Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

At the end of the Cotswold relay 2018 Lucy's Dad suffered from two heart attacks - this is his story:


I knew something was wrong from the start, however although common sense dictated otherwise, I pressed on. At the finish, when I should have been throwing everything into the race, I was reduced to a walk. My first heart attack happened shortly afterwards, and the second swiftly after that. I was then rushed to the BHI where two stents were fitted and the recovery started immediately.


I was discharged on July 7 and, after three months of rehab, I ran my first competitive team event – and we won. The fact that I was able to get back into racing and normal life so relatively soon after my ‘event’ is testament to the skill and care I received at the BHI – I was very lucky to have a hospital of its high calibre in the vicinity.


This was the  worst news for Lucy to hear when she was living on the other side of the world, however knowing he was in great hands at the Bristol Heart Institute was a great reassurance. This year Lucy and Morgan will be running the Bristol half marathon for the BHIs leading charity Above and Beyond - and so will Will! Any donations big or small will be greatly appreciated!
