Muscular Dystrophy is a particularly cruel genetic disorder that cut short my brother's life.
James was both an inspiration and a cheeky swine. I consider myself very fortunate to have spent 20 years with him.
I'm not a natural runner and have been working up to this event for a long time (physically and emotionally). I know it would make him proud, even if he would probably have teased me about my rubbish speed!
It would mean a great deal to me if you could spare a few pennies.
