Story
Parkinson’s Disease will affect one in every 350 adults – which could be you or a close family member.
My Dad was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease a few years ago, so I am running the 2019 Bath Half Marathon in support of Parkinson’s UK. This is a wonderful organisation which does some incredible work to further our understanding of the disease with a view to one day finding a cure and improve life for everyone affected by Parkinson’s.
As you would expect, for Dad, some days are better than others. What amazes me however is his unrelenting strength of character to never let it get the better of him. He is a fighter.
I am running the Bath Half Marathon on 17th March to raise awareness of Parkinson’s disease and hopefully raise a small amount of money to contribute to the ongoing research of Parkinson’s UK.
Most importantly, I am running because I love my Dad!
If you are able to make a small donation to Parkinson’s UK on this page I would hugely appreciate it.
Thank you
Iain
