Story

Hi there,


Well I've deliberately left it to the last minute.  I figured that if you see that I am running next weekend, you will donate NOW, and nor put it on the never-ending to-do list.

You know what a fat slob I am, and how I have never ever run 10 miles.  In fact when at school i always got away with being a marshall rather than running any cross country runs.   For the last 3 years I have been telling patients to do more exercise and felt like a hippocrite (NB the  source of the word is hippocrates)

So here I am doing the 10 mile run.  My grandfather had alziemers and I remember at the age of 11 really not understanding and in fact probably confusing him more.  So here i am trying to do my bit.

If you've seen me recently you'll know I have been struggling with foot injuries, the flu, lower wisdom tooth extraction etc.  So you know I'll deserve every bit of sponsorship.


Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
