Story
Pulmonary Hypertension is a serious condition where your body cannot circulate good oxygen to the vital organs. Your body will work harder and harder to circulate this oxygen but gradually wears itself down. This rare disease can happen to any one at any time.

In January 2007 our dad was diagnosed with Pulmonary Hypertension and on the 8th of November the same year our dad sadly passed away. When he was diagnosed we had little idea about the condition so would like raise awareness.
Russell and I completed The Tough Guy Challenge in 2009 raising some money for PHA, since then we have thought about partaking in other fundraising events. Since it is the 10 year anniversary of his death next year, we have decided to take part in something that will really challenge us. PHA UK have kindly offered us 2 places for next year's London Marathon which we gratefully accepted.
We're hugely grateful for any donation you can make which will also encourage us during our training!
