Ian’s 2009 Charity Challenge
Climbing high and running a long long way for The Stroke Association
All ad revenue will be donated to The Stroke Association
After about 6 weeks of planning and working out whether it was possible, I’ve got enough booked now that it’s most certainly on!
Before going further and getting excited by what 2009 may bring, there’s a really important reason as to why I’ve planned a gruelling 10 or so months to really push myself. In the Summer of last year my Grandad died after suffering two strokes and spending the last 2 weeks of his life in hospital. And so, all of this is in memory of him, to raise money and awareness of the work done by The Stroke Association.
For more details I’ve setup a page explaining in more detail why I’ll be off here there and everywhere pushing myself physically as well as a page on what I intend on doing. And if you’re feeling generous already then please visit my Justgiving page and make a donation to help get this show on the road.
Cheers,
Ian
