Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As some of you may be aware, my Grandfather (John) sadly passed away in November 2014 and during his period of deteriorating health spent time in St Michaels Hospice, Hastings and in return of their much appreciated and hard work I wanted to give something back in return.

I have therefore (madly) decided to run the Brighton Marathon in April 2015 and endure all 26.2 miles of...pain(!). Being a very keen cyclist and never really been into running, I only took up running in September of this year so friends and family think I am mad - no pain no gain, right?!

My aim of raising £750.00 may be ambitious but please donate for this brilliant local cause and my grandfather, John would also have appreciated this.
