Story

If you know me at all then you know that fitness and exercise is not my thing. To put that into perspective, today (8th September 2019) I ran or rather jogged a just over a mile in around 10 minutes before having to stop and walk the last 500 yards home. In 8 months time I will be taking on the Rat Race Dirty Weekend with 4 others, we will be running 20 miles and attempting 200 crazy obstacles. My guess is the 4 of them are all much fitter than I am. 

In the first instance my target is to get fit enough to complete the thing, over and above that I aim to raise a minimum of £500 for Macmillan Cancer Support. Last year my dad lost his five year battle with cancer after suffering from a rare neuroendocrine tumour. Macmillan had a support network in place which helped him through various points in his battle. 

So, as much as I am doing this for me and Macmillan, most of all, Dad I am doing this for you!
