Story

For those of you who know me well, you will know I hate running with a deep passion. However, in a moment of madness,  that quite frankly I still don't understand, I agreed to do the Manchester great run.  I would like at least some good to come out of the painful weeks of training I have been doing in an attempt to get around 10K which didn't sound too far on paper, I now realise with great clarity just how far it is!

As you may all know my Mum died earlier this year after suffering from Alzheimer's for nearly two years. It is a particularly cruel disease robbing people of the memories we all take so much for granted and removing people's ability to ground themselves on their timeline of life. I would like to help any research possible to find a way to alleviate the affects for people in the future and help those already unlucky enough to suffer.

So if you feel you would like to support the Alzheimers charity and help me get around 10K of my worst nightmare activity then please donate here via just giving.
