Hello everyone,
Thank you for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.
So, I have now completed the first of my challenges of 2018, the Great North Swim - 1 mile, and with your support I completed it in 40 minutes (rounding down of course ;D...). Thank you all so much again for helping me raise £557.34 for the Circulation Foundation, a charity that is saving lives by funding research into vascular disease. Did you know people who have vascular disease are more likely to have worse health outcomes than most cancer patients?!
The Circulation Foundation is the only dedicated vascular charity in the UK and is the charity my family and I chose for my Dad, who passed away over Christmas 2017 and was affected by peripheral arterial disease. Please see "Nigel Melaugh" JustGiving page.
I will be fundraising for the Circulation Foundation further this year by beginning my next set of challenges - 3 half marathons in 7 weeks!
Sunday 9th September - Great North Run. Completed in 2h10:51.
Sunday 7th October - Cardiff Half Marathon. Completed in 2h01:11
Sunday 28th October - Bradford Half Marathon
Note: I am not a runner. I have never run long distances before (never mind 3 half marathons!!!) so any support along the way will be very much appreciated.
Thanks Ladies and Gents, Alex xxx
