Story

So, it's New Year, and I've realised that I have precisely 6 1/2 weeks until the Brighton Half Marathon.  Help me motivate myself by sponsoring me!  I'm targeting beating 1 hour 45 minutes and am obviously way behind schedule!

Last year I was sponsored by my company to go on a Back Up Trust course as a volunteer to help those with Spinal Cord Injuries to learn to ski.  It was an eye opening experience and showed me the value of this charity. Having had a near miss on the ski slopes myself made me appreciate it more.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
