My Dad died of prostate cancer in 1999, I really miss him.  In his youth he was a good cross country runner.  Sadly I didn't inherit his athletic abilities so why not take pity on me and sponsor me to stumble round my hometown in the Great Manchester Run on 16 May.

I am also collecting for the Born Free Foundation in memory of my Dad's fascination with apes and monkeys.  If you'd rather donate to this cause please visit www.justgiving.com/KarenKenworthyBF .
