Chances are, if you're reading this, you know me well.
My passion for exercise is extreme, but nothing like as extreme as my other love - my mum Alice RIP.
I'm a couple of months into training and feeling the burn, but in Dwight D. Eisenhower's words "What matters is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight - it's the size of the fight in the dog". And I ain't no poodle.
I'm raising dough in support of Pancreatic Cancer UK. Although exerting extreme pressure is not my style (I've changed), I'm expecting the great and the good among you to help me by reaching deep into your sky rockets.
My target is £10,000. So please, don't embarrass yourself - do the right thing and 'fix-up'!
Love Manny
