<p><span style="font-family: Arial; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;"> <span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;">On May 2, I will be running in the </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;">Belfast </span></span><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">marathon. "Running" may be a little optimistic; however, I am aiming to get round in under three days....</span></span></span></p>

My training programme is about to start - better late than never and any help or advice, would be much appreciated.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" /><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" /></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;">I am planning to train not only in the gym but also across </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;">Yorkshire</span></span><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">, around various reservoirs. I will update this page regularly so keep coming back to check up on my progress....<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" /></span></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;">Macmillans is such a great cause and I hope you will dig deep to help me raise as much as possible. My brother-in law recently lost his brief battle with cancer and was from </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;">Ballyclare, near Belfast </span></span><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">and I know he would be laughing his head off watching me trying to run this far!!<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" /></span></span></p>
