Story

Nov 1st update: Thanks everyone for your very generous donations! The event in Ljubljana was fantastic, with great local support.  Despite an injury 5 weeks ago that knocked my training off course, I was very happy to get fit just in time and complete the marathon in 3 hrs 49 mins. Big thanks to my wife Caroline who ran her first half  marathon in 1 hr 50m, she was my pacemaker and support runner for the first lap.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.  This time last year I was coming to the end of 5 months treatment for Hodgkins lymphoma, so having now returned to good health I am in training to run my first ever marathon in Slovenia this October  to raise as much money as possible for this great charity.  The fantastic work they do ensures that effective treatments for leukaemia and lymphoma continue to be developed and refined to  treat blood and lymph cancers giving more patients successful outcomes.
