Hello, Mr.Kev here, welcome to my JustGiving page. Please remember when donating to TICK the Gift Aid box.
As some of you may know, Ive been raising money for the Alzheimers Society for over 6 years now, ever since my Nan, Betty Thomason, passed away from it and I wanted a way of giving something back to such a great charity. I had grown up living with my Nan for 23 years so its a cause very close to my heart. Recently my other Nan (Nana Logue) has also been diagnosed with Alzheimers, so having two grandparents suffer from this is the reason Im looking to raise more money to help fund research into this disease.
I am running in February the Great North West Half Marathon, in March the Stafford 20 (20mile run), and Wilmslow Half Marathon then finally in April the Greater Manchester Marathon. In total thats 72.5miles (116.7km) in just 4 runs. Every year people ask for donations for running a 10km race, by nearly multiplying this distance by 11 I hope it encourages people to be a little bit more generous ;)
I want to try raise as much money as possible, so Ive decided to really physically challenge myself. Ive already gone the whole of January without any alcohol and so far in 2014 I've yet to have a single pint of beer/lager to ensure I can complete the runs....some would say thats worth a donation on its own !!!
