Story

hello

It's Nass's wife Bren here.

Nass is not one to build himself up.... so I am going to do it for him.

My husband is amazing.

A couple of years ago Nass was diagnosed with MS. We were both shellshocked.For some while we didn't talk about it. When we did eventually deal with discussing it his reaction was

" Im not taking this lying down, I'm going to fight it."

What did he do?

He signed up for the Brighton Marathon and ran it for The Chestnut Tree Hospice which is just outside of Arundel, raising money for sick and terminally ill children. The amazing thing was after only 6 training sessions and around the same in miles, he damaged his leg. Nass thought if he went out again and aggravated it he wouldn't be any good on the day.

So he didn't train anymore.

But run it he did and not only that, slowed himself down by  running with someone who was on the brink of giving up, so they both came  through the finishing line together.

I breathed a sigh of relief. His doctors breathed a sigh of relief.

All his friends breathed a sigh of relief.

 

Oh no......you can't keep that Nassie down.

Now he is about to do the London to Brighton Cycle Ride.

His training regime has been much the same as the marathon.Ha ha.

So dear friends, please support Nass with one of the charities he is rasing money for.

 

The Chestnut Tree Hospice

The Bristish Heart Foundation

The Brain Tumour Charity

Maybe you would be able to turn out on the day to cheer him on.

many thanks
