My story ~ Dan Stratford<br />
Every so often you come across people who inspire you to better<br />
yourself, question yourself and realign your perceptions.<br />
When you meet children who are born without sight from birth but lead<br />
happy fulfilling lives, without the slightest sign of barriers or worry, it<br />
makes the woes in one's own life, pale into insignificance!<br />
MACS (Microphthalmia, Anophthalmia & Coloboma Support, Registered charity number<br />
1161897) is a very small charity which strives to make the lives of children and teens<br />
born without sight or severe visual impairment better.<br />
I will be setting out to raise £2000 for this amazing charity by running not only a number<br />
of half marathons and fund raising events but topping it all off by running (probably<br />
walking as well) the London Marathon!!!<br />
I would be incredibly grateful for any donations, big or small to go towards the final total.<br />
Many thanks to those who have already donated.<br />
