- I plod round Brighton for 26.2 miles, getting sunburnt and knackered and trying to overcome the various parts of me that have started falling off as I get older

- You kindly recognise my efforts by even more kindly sponsoring me to raise funds for Whoopsadaisy, a Brighton-based charity that does amazing work for children with cerebral palsy, other motor disorders and physical developmental delay.

- You then put up with my post-race gurglings about how it was amazing, everyone should do a marathon and how I can't walk up or down stairs for a week afterwards. As compensation, you get glamorous running photos like the one above.

Thanks in advance - anything you donate is hugely appreciated by me and Whoopsadaisy!
