So this will now be my fourth Great Manchester Run, and Claire's third. Its now been two years since I last ran anything approaching a 10k. And its been three years since Claire ran the great Manchester Run - this will be her first since Daisy was born. We've both dusted off our trainers and tried desperately to get our training in around work and parenting.

Alzheimer's is a terrible affliction, not just for the sufferer, but for the family of the sufferer as well. We've seen the effects first-hand, as my Grandad was a sufferer, and my family suffered with him. But the Alzheimer's Society are doing great work, both in research and support of sufferers and their carers.
