Story

Unfinished Business – this is it

For those of you who remember, I embarked on a challenge in 2022 and came up short, but there was always something saying that this was not to be my final effort.

So I have decided to go again and this time the challenge is to complete 7 Marathons in 7 days culminating in the London marathon on Sunday 20th April.

I will be starting in Birmingham on Monday 15th April and completing a marathon each day along the grand union canal.

The final day will be to complete the London Marathon on Sunday 21st April.

I have taken inspiration from Kevin Sinfield and the work he has done to raise money and awareness for this incurable disease.

A gift from you today of any amount will not only help to support families living with MND, but will also fund vital research in the search for a cure. With your help, we hope to save other families from the heartache of a motor neurone disease diagnosis in the future.

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page supporting the MND Association.
