Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Ok....on my 'to do before I am 40 list' was to complete the London Marathon - I really don't think that will happen, so I have set myself a more realistic challenge - The Birmingham Half Marathon on 24th October.
Originally this was just a intended to be a personal challenge, with no sponsorship, however I then thought "If I can raise a few quid whilst running 13.6 miles then it can only be a good thing right?" Also, to make this even harder I have only given myself 2 months training.
I have chosen a charity close to my heart for obvious reasons; Brain Tumor Research. http://www.braintumourresearch.org
I myself was not aware of this fact BUT, more people under 40 die from Brain Tumors than ANY other cancer, yet cancer research is still very much under-funded in this area.
If you would like to donate I would be extremely grateful, however your best wishes and support for my challenge are also more than appreciated.
