My Goal

In view of my Dad being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in early 2011, my target is to raise £2,000 for the Alzheimer’s Society by running the Tough Guy™ 2013 Challenge.

 

£2,000 could support over 10,000 families with vital advice on how to talk to children about dementia with the Society’s award-winning ‘Talking to children about your illness’ booklet.  I also want to make people more aware of the problems that Alzheimer’s places upon people who suffer from it. 

 

Your support in this event would be appreciated by my Father, Peter Ness, my family, myself and the Alzheimer’s Society.

 

Tough Guy™ January 27th 2013 Tough Guy™ is held on a 600-acre farm in Perton, Stafforshire, near Wolverhampton. It has been widely described as "the toughest race in the world", with up to one-third of the starters failing to finish in a typical year.

 

Taking place at the end of January, often in freezing winter conditions, the Tough Guy race is staged over a course of eight country miles. It consists of a cross-country run followed by an assault course featuring 25 obstacles.
