After completing a half marathon last year I got a bit giddy and without really thinking and having been asked by Whizz-Kidz, I accepted to do the London Marathon 2013.

The good news is I enlisted the help of my very good friend and experienced marathon runner, Matthew Williams, to do this with me and fortunately I've heard he drags and carries very well indeed.

Whizz-Kidz are an amazing charity that help to give disabled kids a chance at leading a more independent life. There are an estimated 70,000 disabled children in the UK just waiting for a wheelchair and literally every penny will help to change that.

For more information on the charity, please visit:

Please give generously if not for an incredibly worthy cause maybe just to seal our fate and make sure I actually do this. It's a very daunting thought, I can assure you.

Thank you.
