Thanks so much for visiting my page!

 

I’ve decided to compete in the Marathon Des Sables 2011 and will be undertaking the challenge on behalf of UK Spinal Cord Injury cure research charity, Walkoncemore. This is the second time I will have participated in this punishing event, and I’m hoping to complete the course even faster this time. With your support and generosity, I’ll certainly give it a good go!

 

As a a six-day, 254 km (156 mile) ultra-marathon and the equivalent to six regular marathons, the MdS really is the toughest footrace on Earth! It is nothing, however, compared to how tough life is for millions of Spinal Cord Injury victims all over the World. By pushing myself through each gruelling mile, I’m aiming to raise much needed funds and awareness towards cutting edge research into a cure for this devastating condition. 

 

In an instant, a paralysing Spinal Cord Injury robs the victim and their family of so much, and Walkoncemore support only the most cutting edge research into a solution. Permanent Spinal Cord Injuries will hopefully be a thing of the past before long, and Walkoncemore generate funds to support the brightest minds working tirelessly to make this happen as soon as is safely possible.  

 

A Spinal Cord Injury can affect any one of us at any time, so please think of Walkoncemore's work as something of an insurance policy and please dig deep! Every little bit really does help, and will propel me round this unforgiving course – I am looking to raise a minimum of £10,000, but I may even exceed this with your kindness and generosity!
