Hi! Thanks for visiting my page! I'm going to be running loads over the next few months, which is highly unusual as those who know me would confirm. I don't promise to be Olympic God level dedicated (in fact, my standards are currently at 'eating an entire bag of chocolate chip brioche after a run') but I do promise to try my best, follow the advice of my coach Adam Parker (Thank you Adam), and not stop bugging you for donations. Speaking of which, here comes the awks part, please donate! Below you can read the suggested text from the Rory Peck Trust (which is far better written than I could ever do) but if you want my version, here it is. Journalists are super important, now more than ever in an age of misinformation. By donating you will be helping the bravest of us who trade their personal safety and wellbeing for the good of all, bringing truth to light in places where it could get them killed or worse.

Thank you for your donation! And please come support me and my colleagues on the 8th of October in person, it's a lovely day out!
