Story

 

This Sunday I will be making my third attempt to run the London marathon.

On my prior attempts I didn’t even make it to the start line - this year I’m feeling lucky and will be running dressed up as my favourite super hero and mentor --- Popeye

As before, I'd like use this opportunity to do something good for a change and raise a few bucks for the YMCA. I'll spare you the mumbo jumbo about what the YMCA does but in addition to leading the formation of the Village People which inspires my weekend wardrobe, they do some pretty good things to help people in our communities.

Thanks to your extremely generous donations a few months ago when I ran (and completed) the Berlin marathon we have already raised £577

For anyone who is feeling generous, or shares my reverence for Popeye, please feel free to throw in a few bones.

Thanks for your support!
