<p>Here it is folks!! From my days of drinking, smoking and sitting on my backside I've made a few changes that allow me to now live a slightly healthier life but also help others by raising money for good causes. This run is one I never thought I would be doing so it means a lot to me. Ultra next anyone?? ;-)</p> <p>On Sunday 17th April I will be one&nbsp;of 35,000 hoping to make my way through the streets of London to complete the 26.2 mile course of the Virgin London Marathon.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have chosen to run for Macmillan Cancer Support, this is a charity close to my family and friends hearts. For more information on the great work they do please go to their website&nbsp;<a href="http://www.macmillan.org.uk/Home.aspx">http://www.macmillan.org.uk/Home.aspx</a></p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.<br /><br />In this time of austerity I understand how tough it is for most of us so if a small donation isn't possble I will gladly just accept your support. Please feel free to come along on the day and make sure I finish :D</p> <p>Thank you all as always xxx</p>
