Hello golfers,
Rob's Run
As some of you might know I am running the London Marathon in April for MS I have never completed any running event in the past so last weekend Ian Mccreery invited me to run the Silvertone Half Marathon.
It was a great fun event and event though my preparation was not upto scractch I finished in a reasonable time. There were 7,500 people running and before you say it I was not last. I finished in 1 hour 49 minutes and Ian finished in 1 hour 38 minutes. Like I say I am running the London Marathon on Sunday 24th April any support will be gratefully received.
My aim is to raise £2000 for the MS Society. My Dad has suffered with MS for over 20 years so is very close to my heart. If you can support me by donating on my Just giving page below I would be very grateful. Also as a little incentive if you donate over £75 I will give you a FREE lesson.
