This year my aim is to get to 50 completed marathons and ultras from a base of 32.An early season highlight will be the London marathon which I am running in support DB's charity Sparks. London will be followed by a two-day ultra - the XNRG's Pony Express (2x30 miles), the 100km Race to the Stones, and the 10 Peaks Lakes (48k, 3200m of ascend) and will culminate in the 100km Courmayeur - Champex - Chamomix (6100m of ascend) as a season highlight (if not finale).... 

I have no idea how I will manage these right now but knowing it's for a great cause - helping research into children's diseases - is a great motivator in those dark moments and when you're feeling tired -  please support me generously if you can....
