Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 17th January I was offered the chance to run with Darren in the London marathon & I jumped at the chance! I ony had 3 months to get fit enough & lose about 2 stone, but I'm determined to complete the race & raise as much money as possible to support this great charity.

I also aim to run in as many races as I can manage this year. I've already completed the Larne & Omagh half marathons & am planning to do the Belfast & Edinburgh marathons & Lisburn half marathon ( injuries permitting )!!

You all know that in the last 18 months Darren has been diagnosed with, received treatment & surgery for & recovered from bowel cancer. We've been really fortunate that it was caught & treated early.

One of the aims of this charity is that no-one should die of bowel cancer, their research is vital. Any money we raise will help this cause.

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thankyou so much for your support
