Before you read this blog please take a moment to think about everyone in Boston. Our thoughts are with you.
For me, April is associated with several different things –
Easter, Spring weather…and the London Marathon! Now, as a child I used to watch
this at my grandparents’ house and proceed to run laps around their garden
afterwards in my own “mini marathon”.
This year, our very own Michael McGuinness has been in
intensive training getting ready for this Sunday (21st April), as he
will be running the gruelling 26
miles and 385 yards! Come rain, shine, snow or ice he has been out training
hard – with mere (!) 18 mile practice runs at the weekends.
However, this is all for a worthy cause.
Michael will be running the marathon for MK Snap (www.mksnap.com) this is a centre run to help
young people with disabilities and learning difficulties. MK Snap provide the
opportunity to become more independent, take on employment and be part of a
community.
Every little helps - If you would like to donate towards
this, please visit Michael’s just giving page here http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/MichaelMcG
