** updating the target again because you’re all too generous……. 2hrs 40 with a dodgy MCL, crossed the line in tears with my boys, greeted by my beautiful fiancé family and friends….. beers and food now.**

**updated the goal because you’re all legends !!**

Hello all,

Myself and some of my closest friends are going to do the Great Manchester run in aid of the Isle of Man Hospice.

The IOM Hospice holds an incredibly close spot in my heart as it looked after my mum before she passed to Pancreatic Cancer. Everyone I dealt with at the hospice made the hardest time of my life a little bit easier and the level of care they give is outstanding, they're all hero's !!

My brother Lewis promised my mum that he'd get me to do a half marathon, nice one mate, thanks for that. I thought if i have to do it then I'll rope in my boys also. As a collective there will be around 15 of us running for my mum, she was a keen runner herself and was due to complete her first marathon at 60 before Pancreatic Cancer had other ideas.

The fact that I'll be doing this with the support of my brother and my mates (also brothers) will fill my mum with immense pride........now, to get this 120kg unfit slob running...... Wish me luck.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
