My Story

Hi my name is Brian, I am 91 years old and its great to meet you! in my youth i used to love cycling and time trials, i even cycled to London and back at the age of 14. As i aged I had to give up cycling but still did my best to keep as active as possible, but due to heart trouble i have to be careful as i had a quadrouple heart bipass in 1959. in 2023 i decided to join a local keep fit group as i wanted to meet new people as well as look after my exercise needs. having met many people at this group i realised how much cancer actually affects many people. i decided to take the leap and sign up to race for life, this will be my first 10k, i will be walking and jogging a little as at 91 i can only go as fast as my body will allow. however in my mind i still feel 50 years old. I'm doing this race in the hope to inspire other people to take up more exercise and to realise that no matter your health, abilities or age as after all age is just a number, this is defintely worth the challenge and i look forward to completing it. thank you in advance for any sponser's you can give me take care Brian!!!
