Hi everyone,

Another year and another attempt from yours truly to try and raise as much money as possible for a charity close to my heart: Cancer Research and of course in memory of my Dad, Lawrence, who died almost 7 years ago.

This year I will be completing:

Edinburgh Marathon on May 27th 2012 ( 26.2 miles / 42 k)

London Race for Life - Clapham on July 4th 2012 (10 k)

London Race for Life - Finsbury Park on July 7th 2012 (5 k) - with my mum!

London Triathlon - Olympic distance in September 23rd 2012 (1500m swimming / 40 k cycling / 10 k running)

Every year you have all been so kind and generous and have enabled to me to raise nearly £3000 for a really worthy cause.

I do, ask you again, to spare even just £3 (cost of a drink) or more,  to sponsor me for brutalising my painfully doughy and non-athletic body in order to raise as much as we can for a vital scientific research that has allowed many more to celebrate loved ones recoveries, rather than "in memories."

Also, and yes this is the touchy feely part, but also sponsor to remember those well-loved and strong people out there, like my dad, that battled cancer. Whether they "lost or won" that battle -we should remember them for making our lives that better for knowing them.

Thank you in advance for your time reading this and possibly sponsoring.

Lots of Love

P.s. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
