My Story

Hello everyone. Me again.

 

 In April I will be running the London Marathon for Mencap. This will be my third marathon but this time without Grumpy Nick as he is too old and slow. I am looking forward to running with my friend Mandy and we are busy training.

 

You may know that I am a #MenapMythBuster and really support everything they do to help people with a learning disability especially their campaigns on inclusivity.  I normally use a tablet to speak (but not when I am running!) Even though I can't speak, I can hear and understand what's being said.   Non-verbal people can contribute and join in with everyone else. Don't ignore us.


I am really excited about doing the London Marathon again. The atmosphere on the day is fantastic and I love the support I get from everyone watching and fellow runners.

 

Most importantly, I really appreciate the support from my sponsors. Thank you. Hopefully I can ask you to help me and Mencap again? 

 

Maybe, after this year I might think about retiring .....or there are a few other Marathons  I could try: New York, Boston , Tokyo....
