This year, I am running to raise funds for a vital cause: the Motor Neurone Disease Association. We lost our to Motor Neurone Disease at the age of 55, having alresdy seen our Grandad pass way from the same disease. Every penny I can raise to support research into MND will mean so much.

I am running a series of races this year including the Sheffield Half Marathon, the Belfast City Marathon, the Leeds Marathon and the Yorkshire Marathon. I will then be taking on the Royal Parks Half Marathon in October with the aim of raising £500 over the course of the year.

Thank you in advance for supporting my running challenge and donating whatever you can. It will make a massive difference.
