Scoliosis affects 3% of the UK population, which is a huge number of people. Many are teenagers and many undergo extensive back surgery to rectify the condition. Many of these guys then go on to run marathons. I've seen first hand how inspirational they are and I want to help more of them get on a marathon start line around the world.

I've just completed my 73rd marathon, the Big Sur Marathon in southern California and I can't wait to get back on the West Coast to do another. This time I want to raise big money. Help me get there!
