I am running the London Marathon 2023 primarily for the challenge, having failed to break 4 hours on my first and only Marathon attempt. 

I'm running for 2 charities that are very close to my heart - Spinal Injuries Association and Cancer Research UK. 

This summer marks 40 years since my brother suffered a Spinal Cord Injury, and thus I am familiar with the challenges people in a similar position must face to survive day to day life. 

The week of the Marathon is also 3 years since my father passed away from Cancer.  I would like to raise funds so that fewer people have to suffer from Cancer. 

As you can see, I am strongly motivated by both those causes, and if you wish to reward the thousands of fundraisers who have put hours and miles of training in, please donate!
