Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On September 15th I am running the BUPA Great North Run for the first time, I am doing this for a charity which is very close to my heart -  The Stroke Association.

To help me raise my financial target I am very pleased to offer for raffle these amazing pledges made by Bradford City AFC & Bradford Park Avenue AFC...to whom I am very greatful.

Bradford Park Avenue have been very generous and donated a pair of season tickets for this season with a value of £170.00 each. For a chance to win this fantastic pair of tickets ( £340.00 worth ) please sponsor me just £10.00 (or more) and mention BPA or Bradford Park Avenue to be entered into the draw on justgiving. All entries will be put into a hat and a winner drawn after the event.

Bradford City AFC have been kind enough to pledge a pair of tickets for a home league game this season. For a chance to win them sponsor me £3 (or more) and mention BCAFC or Bradford City in your message to be entered into the draw on justgiving. All entries will be put in to a hat and a winner drawn after the event.

Feel free to sponsor me twice for a chance to win both fantastic prizes - or just sponsor me because its a great cause!

My previous best half marathon time is 2 hours 2 minutes but having had 2 major injuries over the past 2 years which have seriously affected my running and added 2 stone to my weight, my target is to finish the race, running the whole distance, so Mo Farrah can breath easy for this one...if I finish in under 2 hours 15 minutes I will be well chuffed!

Please sponsor me, it will be greatly appreciated and you are helping a charity that helps us all!

I will be running various raffles & completions in an attempt to boost my sponsorship, please keep an eye on my Facebook page & twitter feed for more information.
