At the beginning of the year my really close friend Lucas (see pictures) called me and told me he was diagnosed with blood cancer.

 

I was devastated to hear it and I felt absolutely helpless. It was only a few weeks before he and his girlfriend came to visit me in London and everything was as usual.

 

Luckily the doctors found a bone marrow donor within a few weeks and Luke is now beginning a very good recovery after a long time in hospital and chemotherapy.

 

Because of this I have decided to run for the Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research charity. 250 GBP won't fight that, but after all, every penny helps.

 

My target time for the 10 mile run is 1:15 h.

My own punishment:

If I don't finish under 1:15 h I'll buy 4 boxes of Krispy Kreme Doughnuts for my work colleagues.

If I don't finish under 1:20 h I'll put 50 GBP in this charity account (of course in addition to the Krispy Kremes).

If I don't finish under 1:30 h I'll put 100 GBP in this charity account (still with Krispy Kremes).

In a nutshell: If you are up for charity or Krispy Kreme don't wish me good luck for the run. Please sponsor me.

 

For you Luke!!!
