Story

Welcome

Once again I am punishing my flesh and bones for charity. This time a run; I love running, I'm an absolute natural.  I never get a stitch or feel like throwing up.  Can't believe it is only a half marathon actually, I might just keep on running all the way back to London.  That's how much I love running.

Actually, that is all untrue.  I hate running, in fact I have barely run since I used to not run upon being sent on a cross country yomp when my PE teacher was feeling idle.  We ran out of the school building to the nearest house and drank tea and discussed Sigue Sigue Sputnik for an hour, splashed water on ourselves and ran back in. 

On Sunday my training peaked and I ran 11 miles up and down the Great North Road, ironically listening to Sigue Sigue Sputnik provides me with enough fury to keep going. 

So then, I know I may have already bled you dry once this year, but please spare a few quid this time.  I can't do this without your fiscal support.  Well I can, but it will mean a lot less reason for all the pain i have and will suffer.  Think of it this way, I am doing the Great North Run so you don't have to.

The Prostate Cancer Charity is a great cause, they are doing loads of stuff to raise the profile, research and combat this awful disease that kills around 10,000 men a year in the UK. 

Thanks very much, I really appreciate your support.
