It's that time again: get fit or drown. The downside is that I have to replace quality pub time with floundering on cross-trainers, rowers, bikes, etc. in the gym. I reserve the right to go for a scoop or two after training so, if you see me The Bath Tavern or Laze Daze, looking even worse than usual, it's the exercise not the ale. By sponsoring me, you'll be helping LINC (Leukemia INtensive Chemotherapy), which is based in Cheltenham General. With all the training in the world I won't look like the stick insect in the picture but I was aiming to get under 1 hour 30 minutes this year. A succession of niggling injuries and a stinking cold that has lasted for a month have limited my preparation, but I will get round. Please help with a donation, it makes the torture in the gym and on the bike worthwhile. Thanks and see you at the bar,

Keith
