Story

Chris?? Doing a half marathon??? Never!!! I hear you say... But yes at the grand age of 56 I've decided to join the amazing bunch of people running for Meeting Needs in the Royal Parks Half Marathon this year.

Will I set any records..? Not a chance. Can I run the whole way..? Doubtful. But I WILL do it! help me to help others through Meeting Needs, our event industries charity. Thanks!
