Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving 'Timmy H' Marathon page - please look out for the orange vest, with Timmy H Myeloma UK, running number 6491on the day!.

I am raising funds for 'Myeloma UK', which many of you will know is the charity which supported my dad's illness before he sadly passed away. Training is already under way and I hope to update the site regularly with progress - don't expect any world records but hopefully I will not be too slow - at this early stage hoping for c4hrs 20 mins - will update nearer the date I'm sure but seems to be on target as at today (29/1)!
