Last training run at lunchtime today? Just a 15 minute jog on Saturday, then the big one on Saturday! Surprised my Runkeeper log only shows about 500 miles of training since I registered for the Marathon - not quite Eddie Izzard!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm running to raise funds for Cancer Research because Cancer, in various forms, has, in recent years, affected & curtailed the lives of these members of my family,-  Alan Mellis, Os Finnie,  both Dan & Valerie O'Leary and friend Miriam Foy. I'm running in their memory.

The Amsterdam Marathon is coming up on October 21st, so the training is well underway. This will be my first (and probably last) marathon, just snuck in under the big five-oh!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
