I am raising money for a charity extremely close to my heart that supports mens mental health. I met debbie towards the end of last year who inspired me to raise as much money for such a worthwhile cause, which is why ill be pushing myself and running the York Marathon in October.

I’ll be aiming to go from barely being able to run a kilometre, to running 42 within the space of 10 months. The training will push my limits, but any little helps supporting this amazing place https://seansplace.org.uk
