Story

Hi, thanks for visiting my JustGiving page.

Inspired by friends who have really gone the extra mile to do great things to raise money for their favourite charities, it is now time I made a bit of an effort too!

So for those of you who have fought and won or are still fighting illness, or sadly for those we have lost, I am running the Bristol Half Marathon on the 15th September followed by the Great West Run, Exeter Half Marathon on the 13th October. I am hoping to drag myself around each one in about 2 hours so I really need to get cracking on my training!  

This is also for my cousin Rachel who at only 42 lost her fight with cancer earlier this year. She was one of the most energetic and healthy people I know with a serious crazy love of extreme down hill mountain biking.

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. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

I really appreciate all your support and thankyou for any donations.
