David Weeds

A ‘latecomer’ to running, Dave took up running in 2009 aged 31) when he decided to attempt his home marathon in London. In the 5 years that have followed, he has run marathons in New York, Rio De Janeiro, Sydney, Tokyo and Cape Town and will achieve entry into the ‘7 Continents Marathon Club’ upon completion of the Antarctic Ice Marathon. DaveI has run each of these marathons to raise money and awareness for the UK charity The National Deaf Children’s Society (www.ndcs.org.uk) because he strongly believes in the invaluable work they do to create a world without barriers for the estimated 45,000+ deaf children and young people living in the UK. Further information about his challenge, the charity and a link to his sponsorship page is available on www.daves7continents.com
