Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are taking part in the Virgin London Marathon on Sunday 28 April in support of Osteoporosis 2000.  We have chosen to run for this charity as Osteoporosis 2000 is a small patient-led support group which is based in our home town of Sheffield they receive no statutory funding and rely heavily on local support to fund and provide these valuable services.  They do great work and we hope by doing this we can help them a little and raise awareness about this illness. This is an illness specifically of interest to Sue, whose Mum has osteoporosis, and so has seen the impact of this potentially debilitating illness first hand.

We both are delighted to have been given the opportunity to run in this iconic race on behalf of Osteoporosis 2000, and our training began in earnest pre-Christmas. We both have personal goals we wish to achieve over the 26.2 miles, completion being the primary one!

We, and Osteoporosis 2000 and more specifically the people this charity helps and supports, would be most grateful for anything you can contribute.
