On the 4th June I am taking part in a 65mile run for Project65.
Why ? I hadn't planned on doing any runs this year but as my mum phoned and asked me I thought I best oblige. I feel very privileged to be able to take part in this event. My stepfather Bill is an ex para-trooper and has not been too well recently, this event has really fired his imagination and he has already supported me by paying my entrance fee.
Both my parents were in the forces and my stepfather's brother was a sergeant navigator who died in the war so I am delighted to be involved in the D Day commemoration.
"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them."
