I have decided to do a Steve Redgrave and come out of retirement despite vowing never to go near a marathon again after the London one in 2011 nearly killed me!!!

Personally and as a business we have been sponsoring the amazing people at Shooting Star hospice for over 10 years. Marathons, Golf days and the recently sponsored Xmas carol concert have helped raise desperately needed funds (they have even had us weeding the centres' gardens!!!)

Fast approaching 50, the wrong side of 13.5 stone and with my best days behind me, I doubt I will trouble my 2011 time but I want to go out with a bang and raise as much money as possible. If you could therefore spare even £5 it will make a massive difference to families of children with life limiting illnesses. if you have healthy children, thank the lord and give what you can..... :-)

Thanking you in anticipation........ Adam x
