Just booked my first 10k! I'll be doing the Challenge 2012 Teachfirst 10k in London on the 22nd September 2012. I completed the Swinley Forest Resolution 5k run on Saturday 17th March 2012. You never know, I might start to enjoy running one of these days!

I'm raising money for The Julian Starmer-Smith Lymphoma Fund, ORH charity number 1057295. Julian was 19 years old when he was diagnosed with an aggressive T-cell lymphoma. He fought this bravely, but medical science did not have the answer to his cancer at that time. Today, more than 12,000 people in the UK are diagnosed with lymphoma every year. Many are cured, but this group of conditions still poses a significant challenge to haematologists around the world. In Julian’s memory, his parents, Nigel and Ros, founded the Julian Starmer-Smith Lymphoma Fund. This Fund actively supports the work of the scientists of the University of Oxford who are trying to understand more completely the ways in which lymphoma arise as well as mechanisms which might be used to treat them.
