Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As the manager of Crawley Town FC I'm used to making players run on my command, but now it's my turn. and i'll be taking part in both the Brighton Half and Full marathon in 2013

I was a professional footballer for more than a decade and played nearly 500 League games. To do that you have to be fit but since I went into management the opportunities to keep as fit as you like are fewer because of the other aspects that the job as manager entails.

I visited Chestnut Tree House in December and was amazed at the work that goes on there. It is a wonderful charity and I am looking forward to supporting it by running in both the half and full marathon.
