I think I have gone mad .... I am planning on doing the Great North Run in September. It is a gruelling half marathon. I can't even run round the park now (it is now middle of July).

I promise to send some photos after the event and they will be just as good as the profile pic.

To help motivate me, I also have created a blog. Feel free to take a look on how my training is coming along:

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
