My drive for completing this run is to support the BHF who helped with my father's recovery from a heart attack.

It is also to help prevent the loss of life that I have experienced recently with the sad loss of my close school friend Terry McCarthy and my work colleague Mick McFadden both in October 2010.

I hope that you can help me raise as much money as possible for this great charity, British Heart Foundation.

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.

So please dig deep and donate now.
