Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm running Brighton Marathon in memory of my late father who died last year of heart failure.

His decline was tough, to the point he was unable to do the most simple self care and needed around the clock support in his last few weeks.

We were blessed that he was given a place at Tapping House Hospice and spent his final week in peaceful, warm and friendly surroundings. They made sure he had no pain. They made everything as comfortable and pleasant as possible for Dad in his final stages, to the very end.

I will never be able to thank them enough for the work they did. This fundraising bid is a small token to go towards paying back the gift they gave my Dad and my family in the darkest of times.

Any donations are hugely appreciated.

I participated in the Brighton Marathon last year hoping to crack a sub-4 time and missed the mark wildly (4.48). I was unwell the day before and also paced terribly. Hoping to get it right on the day this time.
