***UPDATE 18th Sept 2011: Edinburgh and Great North Run complete (4hrs 17min and 1hr 58min respectively)! Thank you all for your kind donations to SANDS***

With very generous support back in 2005 I raised over £1,000 for SANDS (as did Andy Smith for Anthony Nolan) in the London Marathon. It was a memorable day to savour but 26.2 miles prompted those immortal words, 'never again'! However, Andrew would have been 10 years old this May, so Bill and Ben are running in the Edinburgh Marathon (May 22nd) and the Great North Run (Sept 18th). We are grateful for your support. Thanks, Chris, Helen and Imogen xxx.

Little flowers lent, not given, to bud on earth and bloom in heaven - Andrew, Tom and Emma.
