Cancer is terrible and effects everyone. People in my family have suffered with cancer and are still fighting it as I type this sentence. I want to raise money to help them get better and help people in the future who get cancer. So I've thrown out my old diet of a million chocolate bars, beer and pizza for a healthier one, joined a gym and now attend regulary (4-5 times a week) to ensure I am fighting fit for this race so I can do my family and friends proud fighting against cancer.

My girlfriend Effie is also taking part alongside me and raising money for Macmillan too.
