Story

Yes its me again!

As i am getting well past my sell by date I wanted to run the London marathon once more, having completed it in 2009 in 5hrs 29mins.Too long! and so this year i am hoping for 5 hours. MSRC have again, very kindly, given me a Gold Bond place and so now its Training and Fund raising.

I thought like other celebrities I would use an old photo, but have now changed my mind. A new photo will be added as soon as.

MSRC is a support charity helping anyone who is affected in any way by Multiple Sclerosis. As my family fits into this category it was an obvious choice for me.

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.

Its Friday 16th April. One week to go. It seems a long time since i wrote the above. Trainings gone ok. One small problem a couple of weeks ago but ok now. I am thrilled how my fund raising has been going. I should clear £2000 which will make the pain worthwile.

Thankyou very very much
