Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 5th of October 2014 I'm going to be running the Bournemouth marathon, a 26 mile course that will definitely test me. I've already started training and its going well. My aim is to complete the marathon in under 5 hours.

It would be fantastic if you could help me raise my target of £450 for The John Thornton Young Achievers Foundation. Any donations would be amazing.

The John Thornton Young Achievers Foundation (JTYAF) honours the life of Lt John ‘JT’ Thornton RM, from Ferndown, Dorset, who was tragically killed in southern Afghanistan on 30th March 2008.

John achieved an incredible amount in his short but amazing life. Indeed, there are not many 22 year olds who can say they have climbed Kilimanjaro, flown with the Red Arrows, travelled across New Zealand, qualified as a sky diver and have worked in both Iraq and Afghanistan as an Officer in the Royal Marines.

Please share this page and encourage people you know to donate aswell. 

Thank you --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
