Story

Another fundraising page I hear you ask?  Well, this one's close to my heart in memory of my brave Dad, Geoff Townsend in addition to all our forces. My Dad fought all his life through loss and illness, several times. I never got to tell him when he gave me away on our wedding day how much he meant. I never did the day after when he sadly passed away. This is my thanks... to him, for everything. 

I'll be running another 26 miles through 1st October to 5th November. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
