After several years of applying for London Marathon ballot places they've finally called my bluff and so I'm now going to attempt to run 26.2 miles on Sunday 26th April 2009 (hopefully in less than 4 hours)!

I have decided to try and raise some money for Diabetes UK, simply based on me being a Type 1 diabetic myself.  As I gained my place through the ballot system I have no minimum amount of money to raise for the charity, but all the same any sponsorship will be gratefully received!

Please feel free to pass the link to this page on to anyone who knows me as my email address book isn't very up to date.

Thanks.

PS - The photo opposite is of me sprint finishing the last 150m of the Milton Keynes Half Marathon in March this year (it in no way represents my pace for the other 13 miles of the course).
