Story

7 yrs after my last run I’m coming out of retirement and again all in the memory of my great friend Peter Green. He lost his fight to Leukemia back in 2008 having fought so hard and so bravely all without a single complaint. He was my lifelong friend, my soulmate, anyone that was ever lucky enough to have spent time with him would have loved him, he was so engaging and friendly, he shared my passion for racing never missing a Festival day between 1988 and 2008, so many wonderful memories that will live with me forever. If ever I’m having a tough day I think back to what he went through and it gives me the kick in the ass I need! Life does indeed go on but for me and his wonderful wife and family it won’t quite be the same. Those that know me will know that turning up on the day and jogging around is not an option, I will and am training as hard as my ageing body will allow in an attempt to do his memory justice, I’m sure he will be looking down chuckling at my struggles! I really appreciate any donations, thanks for your support.
