This will be my final marathon.

I have said that before, but at 42, my knees are crumbling and I need new challenges. Ones that involve a bit more sitting.

I hope you will be able to make a donation, however small, to the Bees for Development Trust. They do fantastic work with bees and people in some of the poorest countries - promoting sustainable beekeeping to support livelihoods and conserve biodiversity.

I did think about running as a bee. Not pollen your leg - I thought it might create a bit of a buzz.

Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
