I used to be a regular runner and this won't be the first time I have run this distance. It will be the first time since 2004 though having had some fairly major life changes the following year, since when I have continued to run periodically but without any specific target to train for. I was thinking I needed a target, especially with my better half threatening to train for a marathon, so when the e-mail came around about a Cadent team it seemed ideal - a perfect reason to train for a good cause. please support me and let's make a difference.

Alzheimer’s Society is transforming the landscape of dementia forever. Until the day we find a cure, we will create a society where those affected by dementia are supported and accepted, able to live in their community without fear or prejudice.
