Following on from the enormous success of Team GB this summer, I have decided to win the Amsterdam Marathon.  I am taking this very seriously, to the extent that some of my training has involved running (my research has revealed that this is a minority running event dominated by Kenyans).

I have set up this page a bit late in the day as the race is on Sunday 19th October.  To be candid, before now I wasn't sure I would medal.  Now I am, this is your chance to be part of a winning team.
