In October 2014 I thought it might be a good idea to lose a good few pounds!! I got busy with it and lost 10 stone in 9 months- towards the latter part of my diet I started running and love it. Never ran 13 miles before but as Samaritans is a charity close to my heart as I was a Samaritans Volunteer in Manchester for 10 years and am proud to of contributed to the massive difference it can make to a person living or dying. Another bonus was I met my lovely girl called Clare who is now my wife whilst we were both training to become Samaritans.
