Story

Am I mad running 30 miles a day for six consecutive days? 

Well thats about the size of the task that is in front of me as I prepare to take my place in a team of six runners that have got together to run a non-stop relay from John O Groats to Lands End. It does sound like a herculian task but it is equally matched by the worthiness of the cause that inspired us. The charity that I am running for is C.W.U.H.A http://www.cwuha.org/ .The charity does a fantastic job helping out needy and vulnerable children both overseas and here in the UK.

A little bit about myself. I suppose I am the old man of the team at 54 but they say age is only a number, I'll tell you if that's true when I get to Lands End. I am married to Jill and have two children. My other passions are cycling and hiking.

We hope to set up a blog, facebook group and a twitter page so you can follow our exploits as they happen. The Run starts at first light on the 18th of May and we expect to finish around the 24th of May after 6 days of non stop running.  Please support this wonderful charity and make the pain that I will be feeling much more bearable. 

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thank you so much
