Story

Thank you for visiting my page.

I have to admit I really didn't enjoy the marathon in 2014 and I was unhappy with my finishing time so I have decided to tackle it again to raise funds for Crohn's & Colitis UK once again.

I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease 28 years ago and supporting CCUK as a charity is really important to me as they work on raising awareness, provide guidance and support to patients and families as well as funding research into potential cures for these two lifelong debilitating diseases.

Crohn's & Colitis sufferers battle with the illnesses every day through great pain, discomfort and tiredness and there is no cure yet.

All every person who is diagnosed wants is 'a cure' instead we have lifelong symptoms sometimes alleviated by medication. Please give generously
