Hello you lovely people. I will keep this short and simple. This year in April I will be running the London marathon in memory of my uncle, Robert Johnson.

He passed away in April last year after a long battle with Arthritis related complications. He was only 59.

That is why I have chosen the charity Arthritis Care UK

You can text :YNWA73 £(your amount) to:70070

If you do text a donation please text me so I can thank you personally as it shows up as 'anonymous'.

So, training has started and I need all the help, motivation and support I can to get round the 26.2 mile course on April 21st.

Please donate as little or as much as you like, it all counts. Thank you all so much and wish me luck.

Neil xxx
