Story

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page. Inspired by Kevin Sinfield, I’ve set myself an exciting challenge for 2023 to raise money for vital,  life changing research into Motor Neurone Disease (MND).

My challenge is to run 7 marathons in 7 weeks, starting at the Great Welsh Marathon on 2 April and culminating in the Rob Burrows MND marathon in Leeds on 13 May. And to make the challenge that little bit tougher, I’ll be doing my best to run every marathon in under 3hrs!

The marathons are:

2 April Great Welsh Marathon

7 April Milton Keynes Marathon 

16 April ABP Newport Wales Marathon

23 April TCS London Marathon

30 April Local marathon 

6 May Local marathon 

13 May Rob Burrows Leeds MND Marathon

Watch this space……After I’ve recovered I’ll be looking to set an even bigger challenge later in the year, again to raise money for MND research. Let’s just say I’ve got unfinished business with 100 mile races! 😜

I really appreciate your support and am hugely grateful for any donations to help reach my fundraising goal! 

MND is a terminal condition. It affects the brain and nerves and is nearly always fatal. In the UK alone, 1 in every 300 people in the UK will develop MND in their lifetime. But there's hope. The University of Sheffield has world leading MND researchers working tirelessly to find a cure for this debilitating disease. By making a gift today you will make a much needed breakthrough in MND come even sooner. And you'll improve the lives of MND patients long into the future.
