Story

At 63, I am a former 2 PARA paratrooper and Falklands War veteran taking on a 10-mile continuous run carrying a 15 kg Bergen to raise £1,000 for Help for Heroes.

Having served in the Falklands War, I want to use my endurance and determination to support veterans and their families who need help today.
