Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Last year my friend Julian Marsh passed away at far too early an age of factors related to Myotonic Dystrophy: a rare form of Muscular Dystrophy.

Julian packed a lot of living into just over fifty years and has left behind a loving wife, friends and family who all miss him deeply and find the world a duller and smaller place without him.

So, in his memory, on Saturday 3rd August I am going to do a Ultra Marathon solo run around the Thames.

I will be doing this to raise money for "Cure DM", a Myotonic Dystrophy charity, who help people suffering from the condition, provide support for their families and raise money for research to find a cure, which currently does not exist.

So, if you knew Julian, please dig deep and help me commemorate his life by raising money for this charity. If you did not know him, I am sorry for what you missed and please give anyway.

Standard terms below…

Love and thanks.

Dan Cooper.
