I was running round Hyde Park this morning and couldnt help noticing the large number of homeless sleeping bags in all the subways around the park. Crisis is a charity Ive had a very limited involvement for some time, and I hope that by doing the Dublin Marathon on Oct 30th, I can raise just a little bit of money for some of the most vulnerable people in this country. So, any contributions would be much appreciated, and Ill let you know how the run went... this time Im aiming for under 4 hours; but, as per last time, Ive only got two months left to do the training, so I need to get alot of miles under the belt very quickly.

Many thanks for your help, and feel free to leave your training tips at miketr74@yahoo.co.uk
