"Thank you for taking the time to read my page".
I know I must be crazy (Once was enough she said) but coming so close to my target time I thought I would have another attempt.
I am pleased to announce that I will be running The London Marathon 2022 in memory of Joe Laoutaris. At 12 years of age, he had been tragically taken from his loving Mother Mel, Father Alex and little Brother Dre in 2015 after a 2 year battle against Ewings Sarcoma cancer.
Mel has worked relentlessly in raising money for many years, promoting beach walks and park runs to continue Joe's memory raising proceeds for Clic Sargent and the Children’s Ward at Musgrove Park Hospital.
He was without doubt the happiest young man you could ever wish to meet and despite his continual treatment and daily suffering, he faced this horrific adversity with bravery and ultimate resilience. He will also be my inspiration.
I will be raising funds in a variety of crazy ways with a little help from my amazing Daughter Kwarla and the coolest dude ever Lance, Family, friends and Students so would greatly appreciate just a small gesture for this brave young man.
Despite the clear weather forecast each year, Joe has managed to bring a spot of rain to grace us with a rainbow. Thank you to all of the amazing supporters for the 5/10k Fun run, I hope to continue to grow the event every year.
