Story

 

Ok here goes for another person wanting money for charity!!

Because I am really stubborn and was told I could never really run that far. I have decided to push (or totally knacker) myself by running the Brighton Marathon. I am still in shock that I have signed up to complete it, although in my head I may think I am a great runner, physically I am definitely not.

I have selected to run for the Alzheimer's Society because it has affected people close to my heart. For those of you who may not be aware it is a terrible degenerative disease which slowly changes people (loss of memory, mood changes, problems with communication and reasoning). Alzheimer's is a progressive disease, gradually, over time, more parts of the brain are affected and as this happens, the symptoms become more severe. This is heart wrenching to watch and experience for carers, families and friends.

So on a lighter note I would appreciate any help you may be able to offer to help spur me on to actually cross the finish line please, please donate.

Many thanks
