Story

Hi everyone,  thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm Simon and i'm from Cardiff. I love going for walks, but due to the coronavirus and living in a central area that hasn't been possible. But i've still been able to go for walks and that's because i'm fortunate enough to have a nice long corridor in my flat to walk up and down! 

And now I'd like to turn this into a opportunity to raise awareness (and of course money!) for those who are fighting this horrible virus and to treat those affected by it.

So my goal is to walk a distance equal to a marathon, up and down a corridor in my flat - i will be doing this at least 100 times a day until i've got the marathon distance of 42.2km done! And who knows, i might just keep on going! 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you! :)
