UPDATE: Well, managed to get round in one piece in time of 2:18:47 which is slower than I had hoped so may well have to do it again! Thanks everyone!

 

Here we go again! I shall once again be doing the Great North Run for the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign in memory of my little brother Matthew who we lost back in 2004.

Every single penny that you manage to donate will help people suffering from the disease and will make a real difference to their often difficult lives.

All contributions wil be very gratefully received and I vow to beat last year's time of 2 hours 26 mins - if not, I'll be hanging up my running trainers and won't be bothering you again!
