Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I realised I have to try and work harder in order to raise money for charity, instead of sitting in nice warm four wheel drive driving around the UK, I have really gone against the grain and been pounding the roads! I must be mad, after doing the Great North Run last year, I said never again. After a few months you forget the aching knees, black toes and miserable training sessions in the rain.

It could be I have something to prove, given that I have a landmark birthday this year!

So the good people at Macmillan have given me the privelage of a place in the London marathon on the 25th April!

Training is going well, in all weathers, one night I was passed by the same gritting lorry 3 times, in fact I have also run in deep snow! Now I am doing runs upto 20 miles with a varied schedule, that includes, cross country hilly routes and timed street laps. Work and travel does occasionally get in the way, but recently I took my trainers and have trained whilst in Spain and Dubai (too hot!).  

Pease help me support this worthy cause, they have helped our family greatly in the past, and they continue to give help and strength to cancer sufferers and their families.
