I'm going to run the Royal Parks Half Marathon on Sunday Oct 9th in aid of Orchid Cancer Charity alongside colleagues from Coracle. 

I've never run a half marathon, but I'm excited to be taking on this challenge to support Orchid, a wonderful charity. Every year over 43,000 men in the UK will be diagnosed with a male-specific cancer and the numbers are increasing. Orchid exist to save men’s lives from testicular, prostate and penile cancers.  

I got to know Orchid through an introduction from my brother-in-law Stuart Seymour, who is a  former testicular cancer patient and Orchid Trustee. (http://www.orchid-cancer.org.uk/about-us/trustees) Coracle have worked with the charity on the awareness part of their mission by building "Know Your Balls - The Game", an App based game with educational elements for iOS or Android.  (I hope that you'll download the game (it's free) and tell your friends and colleagues as well..  App Store: http://bit.ly/orchidballs // Google Play Store: http://bit.ly/orchid-balls  )
