I have been asked to run the Brighton Marathon in aid if Hope and Aid Direct. This is a great charity that sends aid out to Kosovo. This is driven out by volunteers and I know several people who have been out there many times. This is a long term on going project to help the poorest and in some ways most forgotten people in Europe.

I have ten months to train, lose weight and be racing fit. I hope that combined with the cause tempts you to sponsor me. Thanks very much for your support,

Feb 2012 update Last run was 16 miles. I still have a long way to go, but I was only able to run my first mile for more than 35 years last august! All of my friends have been a huge encouragement. Please keep the support coming in, Best wishes Steve
