This 'Pandemic year' has hit us all hard, no one has got away scot-free. Last year I lost my Grandmother and then, a short while after, my Grandfather. The Princess Alice Hospice (PAH) carers provided invaluable palliative care for both of them at the end of their lives. 
The Princess Alice Hospice care for families when they need it most. They provide invaluable support before and after the death of a loved one. But it costs them £10.3 million each year to provide this care. They completely rely on the support of donations to fund the care they give.
This year they have been hit really hard and need all the support they can get.  

I've persuaded them to allow me to run for them in this years London Marathon. To give me one of their valuable Marathon spaces and to allow me the chance to raise as much money as I can for them. I've committed to raise at least £3k for them. 
This is a big responsibility and I really need your help.

Everyone knows how hard care homes, hospitals and carers have had it this year... This is such a worthy cause.

I've always believed that all fund raising to be an honourable thing to do, especially if its for a cause thats important to you... but to ask for a significant amount of money in donations then I should be prepared to do something substantial in return...
Running 26.2 miles is the next impossible challenge for me. The furthest I've run so far before dying on my feet is 10 miles. The next few months are going to be hell for me to be able to run 26.2 miles non-stop to complete this challenge. I obsessively intend on not only finishing this event but to finish it in a completely satisfactory time scale and by running it the whole way.

I've setup a 'Just-Giving' page and I'd really appreciate it if you could support me but more importantly help me support The Princess Alice Hospice who helped my Nan and Grandad when they needed help the most.

Every penny you donate in support of me will go straight to The PAH. 

As part of this challenge I fully intend on keeping you updated of my progress along the way and then the final event itself via messages and videos.
