Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Hi, I'm Geraint, 47 years old and living in South Wales. I was diagnosed with Freidriech's Ataxia (FA) around 20 years ago. FA affects my balance, co-ordination and mobility.

To achieve the fundraising target, I will be completing 8 events along with my son Sam. The Paris and Edinburgh Marathons. The Berlin Half Marathon , The Great North Run and The 4 Castles Challenge (four individual half marathons: Snowdon, Caernarfon, Conwy, and Bangor (completed within a calendar year).

As I have difficulty walking unaided I will be using an adapted wheelchair called a Mountain Trike. I have used 'Trigger' the Mountain Trike for other challenges that I have completed, including The London Marathon and the Berlin Marathons, Tough Mudder challenges, 12 Half Marathons in 12 months, a Triathlon, Climbing Pen Y Fan 10 times and the ascent of Kilimanjaro.

Ataxia is a rare condition (it affects around 1 in every 50,000), with many people not being aware of it. Hopefully, this challenge will raise the profile of Ataxia UK and bring much needed funds and awareness.
