After much training and huge amounts of grief from my family I am shortly going to be running the great north run to raise money for The British Heart Foundation, a charity that's very close to my heart.

Most people know I have a pretty crap heart and without the research and donations from the charity into the NHS I wouldn't be here today.

I want to raise money not only to contribute towards the opperations I'll be having for the rest of my life :) but also to help support other people needing cardiac care.
