It has now been over 10 years since my last Marathon, the London in 1999. I wanted to repeat it in 2009 but circumstances didn’t allow, so in 2010 I’m going for the Paris Marathon.

The charity I’ve chosen to run for is Get kids Going! – led by Seb (now Lord) Coe, a hero of mine when I was a teenage runner in school, and Dame Tanni Grey Thompson, who I once had the pleasure to meet.

Get Kids Going! Is a charity that provides sport and mobility equipment for disabled children and young people.

My target is to raise £2000 for this charity, so please dig deep to help me reach this target..
