In July of 2023 I'll be turning 40, but before that happens, I wanted to challenge myself to run a marathon....and not just any marathon....the world famous LONDON MARATHON!

I've been on a running journey since about October 2021 and at just this time last year, I completed my very first 10km race. At the time, I thought that was amazing....but I didn't stop there, I kept going! 

Since then, I've managed to finish a half marathon and another two 10km races. Now I feel ready to really push myself, and take on a full marathon. It hasn't been an easy road and I've batted all sorts of shin splints and plantar fasciitis along the way....but persistence and determination have seen me though.

I'm very fortunate to be running for a charity called the PDSA (People's Dispensary for Sick Animals). They believe that every pet deserves to lead a happy and healthy life. As the UK's leading veterinary charity with 48 Pet Hospitals, we improve pets lives through prevention, education and treatment.Every year our dedicated veterinary teams carry out 2.7 million treatments on 470,000 pets in need - all made possible thanks to people like you.

I would love if you could sponsor me for this event! I know times are tough, so I would be so grateful for any amount that you can spare. And if you're a business and you're looking for a cause, or a tax break....IT'S ME....I'm your guy!
