NEWS FLASH! 26th July 10

Nearly 12 months after the Peterborough half which I sadly had to miss due to ill health (oink oink) I will be running the Nottingham half marathon. I'm certainly not asking for a donation if you gave last year but wanted to let you know that I will be going through the pain on 12th September that your donation deserves.

NEWS FLASH! Sun 11th Oct 09

I've got flu, possibly of the swine variety, and have been in bed since Wednesday. I'm really disappointed to let you know I have therefore not ran the Peterborough half marathon. 

But I'm hoping you're happy for Mind to keep your sponsor as I plan to book onto the next half marathon once I'm better. I'll keep you posted on this page.

You can still sponsor me, I'm targeting the Norwich half marathon on 29 November and will keep the fundraising page open until the beginning of December.

Best wishes,

Mark

I'm doing the Great Eastern Run for the mental health charity Mind.

Having suffered from an anxiety disorder and depression, challenging the stigma and supporting people who suffer from mental health problems are issues that are close to my heart. Mind helped me recover and I want them to be able to help others who are suffering.

As well as supporting people who have mental health problems, Mind campaigns for a society that promotes and protects good mental health for all, where people who experience mental distress are treated fairly, positively and with respect.
