Story

Lots of people run marathons to raise funds. Well I thought I’d try to run a marathon wearing full Viking chainmail armour weighing about 22kgs. Making the run a real challenge and adventure.

The hospice has served our town and my own family wonderfully and so this is a way to give something back and say thank you.

Look out for me training this summer. Please Join me on my run by making a donation and count yourself part of the viking adventure
