I started running 2 years ago and have done a few 10ks and Half Marathons but this is the big one! My first and quite possibly only marathon. What began as a quest for medals is now more about completing 26.2 miles of mental and physical suffering!

I will be doing Bolton Half Marathon on Sunday 10th September followed by the Chester Marathon on Sunday 8th October.

If you can spare a few quid then it would mean a great deal to me and more importantly to the good people at Bolton Hospice.

Thankyou in advance! Alex (and Kirsty, Lou and Jake aka "Team Brodie")
