Story

<p>***UPDATE 18th Sept 2011: Edinburgh and Great North Run complete (4hrs 17min and 1hr 58min respectively)!&nbsp;Thank you all for your kind donations to SANDS***</p> <p>With very generous support back in 2005 I raised over &pound;1,000&nbsp;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&nbsp;immortal words, 'never again'!&nbsp;However, Andrew would have been 10 years old this May, so Bill and Ben are running in&nbsp;the Edinburgh&nbsp;Marathon (May 22nd) and the Great North Run (Sept 18th).&nbsp;We&nbsp;are grateful for your support. Thanks, Chris, Helen and Imogen&nbsp;xxx.</p> <p>Little flowers lent, not given, to bud on earth and bloom in heaven - Andrew, Tom and Emma.</p> <p>Andy's page at <a href="http://www.justgiving.com/billandbengonorth">www.justgiving.com/billandbengonorth</a></p> <p><span style="color: #333333;"><em>"Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
