Having seen the well publicised stories of a number of famous sports stars I started to become aware of the impact of Motor Neurone Disease and the need to get involved I have been involved in Doddie Aid over the years - having a close friend be diagnosed with this disease has only strengthened my support for helping find a cure for this disease.

For those that know me well - 25 miles in December will be a challenge - but one that I will do my best to complete - want to join me in making a difference?

I'm raising money to benefit Motor Neurone Disease Association, and any donation will help make an impact.

Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
