NEWS FLASH:  I have injured my knee and unfortunately, will not be running this year :(  I can however, defer my entry until 2010 so I will run then!  Thank you so much to those who have already donated, your money is going to a great cause.  Thanks for your support xxx

I'll keep this short and sweet (a little like myself you might say...)

I am attempting the Great North Run this year in aid of the Scleroderma Society.  As many of you know, my Father died from Scleroderma when I was young.  I am really keen to support the work of the charity which aims to raise awareness, support sufferers and to fund research.  

Please consult the Scleroderma Society's website for more information about the disease and the work of the charity. www.sclerodermasociety.co.uk

Now, should "short and sweet" not quite be your choice of words to describe me, I will allow alternative suggestions...  Only with a donation though!   Think wisely and dig deep!

Thanks for your support.
