12 marathons in 12 months · 11 December 2020

Every day 250 people in the UK start losing their sight. With your help, we can be there when people need us most, support independent living, create an inclusive society and prevent avoidable sight loss. Every pound you raise will help create a future where sight loss is no longer a barrier.

Story

Thanks very much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Today, too many people with conditions like glaucoma and cataracts still face isolation and depression, unable to achieve their potential in a world that blocks their way. 

I have always greatly admired people who are blind or partially sighted, the way they navigate their daily lives so successfully astounds me. Covid 19 has further exacerbated the difficulties they face in doing normal day to day activities. I love running, I want my miles to make a difference to the lives of people with these conditions.

This will be a challenge for me, I have no anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in my left knee after completely snapping it 13 years ago. Any time I run a distance over 15 miles, my knee gives me a lot of pain, but I am determined to achieve this goal to help support the great work of the RNIB.
