Hi everyone, as most of you know I have spent the last 10 months trying to lose the dreaded 'BABY' weight and then some!!

So far I have lost 4stone 4lbs and I'm still going strong well most of the time anyway!!!!!!!!

What started as a stagger up the road trying not to collapse from a lack of breath has now turned into something I really enjoy and I now run between 7 and 10 miles when I go out which is most days.

I have now decided to take things to the next level and set my sights just a little higher. Alright they're not just a little higher..................

I hope your ready for this

On 25th April 2010 I will be running the London Marathon for a fantastic charity based in Chelmsford called the J's Hospice.(Reg No1099562)

The J's Hospice was founded in March 2004 with the aim to build the first environmentally-friendly, stand-alone, age- appropriate hospice for 18-40 year olds with life-limiting conditions in the East of England.

So please help me to help this amazing charity and sponsor me to run the London Marathon and donate as much as you can so I can reach my £2000 target.
