Story

Thanks for visiting my page.  I only really started running a couple of years ago, and what with my dodgy hip and poor taste in sports wear, running 13 miles feels like a bit of a crazy thing to be doing.

I'm not just running for Mandy, who's on her third time around at the moment (breast cancer, this time, Hodgkin's Disease twice before) but also for too many of our family and friends whose lives are touched by cancer.

The last time Mandy and I raised money for Cancer Research was when we set up a donations page to celebrate our civil partnership. Then, thanks to hugely generous family and friends, we raised over £3000.  This time, there will be a lot less Pimms involved (unfortunately), so I have had to set the target a little lower!  

My goal is to raise £2000, so any support is appreciated.  Running helped me cope with all the stress of the last year - it really would be something positive if it could also help Cancer Research.
