Story

Some things on a bucket list require a bit more effort than others. As I'm not getting any younger it's about time I got on with it and tackled the marathon. It has to be the London Marathon as I'm a novice runner and need as much crowd support as possible. I would try helium balloons and short cuts but apparently it is against regulations.

I am not running on behalf of an individual but would be grateful if you are able to name someone who has inspired you to make todays donation.

My charity is Cancer Research UK as it not only leads the way in improving treatments for cancer but also promotes cancer prevention and cancer screening.
