Since Christmas I've been training with a lovely bunch of ladies for the Big Half Marathon in London! As a team we've challenged ourselves and each other and it would mean a lot to have your support.

We're running for the Guy's and St Thomas' Charity, an amazing group that supports so many people and projects there are too many to list... That said, ones that are most important to me are: projects involving childhood obesity and the chronic conditions that affect a lot of the elderly patients I see in the local community. They also do some amazing work with the Evelina Children's Hospital, a hospital that cares for children across South London. And GSTT charity has recently helped to fund a brand new Cancer Centre at Guy's, which I've watched being built from scratch over the last three years on my walk to lectures.

I can't think of a better charity to run for, because I know exactly where and to who the money is going - so please donate! And if you have a spare five minutes, have a look at my team mates' pages too.  They are all fabulous ladies, who I can't wait to cross the finish line with!
