Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

In November, myself & Dave will be taking part in an event called Tough Mudder, a VERY tough event.

"Tough Mudder events are hardcore 12 mile obstacle courses designed by British Special Forces to test your all around strength, stamina, mental grit, and camaraderie" (http://toughmudder.com/)

The course involves a 10-12 mile run with 25+ obstacles including swimming in ice cold water, running through waist high mud, running through fire, carrying logs up hills, running through a field of electric wires, up very steep hills, monkey bars over ice-cold pools and many more.

We will be taking part in this event and raising money for Cancer Research UK, a very respectable charity which I'm sure you're all aware of, cancer affects 1 in 3 people and is a horrible disease to live with, and this charity help toward treating and finding a cure to this horrible illness and have already saved many, many lives.

Please dig deep and donate to this worthy cause as much as you can, a lot of training is going to have to go into this event and it's going to be physically and mentally tough but knowing that we're doing it for a worthy cause will help us complete the event.
