Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am celebrating my 70th birthday later this year and have decided that I would like to return to the starting lineup of the Parish Walk as this is where my race-walking career began 39 years ago.

I returned 19 years ago to complete the whole 85 miles at 1st attempt. This time my ultimate goal is Peel and to help me achieve this I would like to raise some funds for the Isle of Man MS Society.

As a fitness instructor at the NSC I have been delivering twice weekly sessions with the MS group since 2010. I have seen first hand how this debilitating disease affects people in so many different ways yet they stay positive and happy. This is why i would like to put myself through training and maybe a bit of discomfort or whatever for one day to try and raise some funds for this charity.

Thank you for considering this page and any donations that is made I am truly grateful.
