<p style="line-height: 18px; float: left; width: 540px; font-size: 12px; word-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #000000;">I've decided to take on the Olympic Gold Challenge of running, rowing and cycling 2012km between now and the start of the Olympics next July, to raise </span>money for the UK's only gynaecological cancer charity, The Eve Appeal.</p>

<p style="line-height: 18px; float: left; width: 540px; font-size: 12px; word-wrap: break-word; display: block; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #000000;">I've chosen The Eve Appeal because I recently had to have a colposcopy following abnormal results from a routine smear test, and was impressed that such a quick screening process exists for cervical cancer. I'd also like to raise awareness of the importance of following up smear test reminders... so, girls, if you can't sponsor me, then please make damn well sure that you'll keep your smear test appointments! </span></p>
