Hi All!!! 

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. As some of you may or may not know Karina's plan is to run the London Marathon in April to raise money for a great cause. We kind of thought she should do a few run's before to get herself ready for the race!!! So why not raise some extra money whilst doing it!!! Gemma has also jumped on the wagon to help raise some money!! Earlier this year our amazing Dad suffered a Stroke which has effected his speech and ability to walk/write/play golf and the worst of all drink beer!!! It has been very hard for him to adapt to his new life. But the determination he shows us all day to day is just amazing... If you know Karina you will know she is the most laziest person in the world when it comes to sport (Gemma isn't far behind hehe) BUT she gave Dad her word when he was in Queens Hospital that if he learnt to walk again she would run the Marathon- The old gits only gone and done it hasn't he. Please  find some loose change to give to this great cause. The Stroke association not only help victims of the illness but they provide stability for the families too. As well as the research to save lives, prevent Stroke and help people make the best recovery the possibly can. Every year there are approximately 152,000 strokes in the UK!!! Thats one stroke every three and a half minutes!!! Any way we are going on and on!!! Gemma will be running a 10k in October and Karina in September... THATS 20K between us!!! if only we could tag team marathon day :-) xxxx

Please help me help those who have suffered people like my Dad.
