Thanks for visiting  - I'm happy to say I completed The Great North Run. It was a perfect day for the event and as ever the Northeast crowds were so supportive.

My charity is The Anthony Nolan Bone Marrow Trust.

If you can, in these "crunched" times, spare a few quid, please donate and support the work they do. Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me:

Anthony Nolan Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks!

Mark
