Story

Hey,

I am running the NYC Marathon on November 3rd, 2013 for the Charity Epilepsy Society to help them continue their research and support. The charity is close to my heart. Here's why -

I have seen first hand the difficulties and challenges the condition can cause. From an early age my beautiful niece, Olivia has suffered from the condition. She is doing amazingly well and always comes through any difficult times with a beautiful smile and infectious laugh but will have to overcome the condition for rest of her life. She is also due to have an operation at Great Ormond St, London for improvments in her condition.

I would love to be able to raise some money in support for research and treatment for many young children like Olivia. 

Those who know me well, will know fitness is not my best attritubute and the training and actual marathon itself is going to kick my ass. Knowing I have your support for the charity will give me that extra push. 

Thank you for your time and any support is welcome.

Chris a.k.a Farmer - Pint on me after the marathon - only if you sponsor ;) 

So please dig deep and donate now.
