Hey you guys,

I've got a place in the 30th Great North Run, a 22k half marathon in the freezing north east in september... Not sure how great an idea this is seeing as I've only done 10k's before!! Anyway, getting a place is difficult although, luckily, I've been offered a place to run for a charity that supports the disease my grandad suffered with for 10 years. He had the really horrific form of dimentia, alzheimers.

The charity are asking that I raise a minimum of  £400 to secure my place and I've set my target at a more round fiqure of £500...

So I'm asking if you guys would donate just £5 each, thats not much right, and with 100 donations the target will be easily smashed! Anymore would be sweet as and much appreciated...

Much love
Oli

And to top it all I only have 10weeks from returning to England to get fit with my aim to do it in 2hours... Ouch!

PS If you give £500 I'll wear anything for the run... (thats allowed to be worn in public!, funny and supplied!) Plz email for dimensions...
