As you may know I was diagnosed three years ago with Chrons Disease and last April unfortunately underwent emergency surgery for a second time to remove part of my intestine.
This was a very difficult time for my family and myself .
Following the surgery I spent some time in intensive care and left hospital on Sunday 13th April 2014 - 4 weeks after the surgery and also the day of the 2014 London Marathon.
i made a pledge then to run the 2015 Marathon
And so one year on, despite several set backs I am about to fulfill this pledge and will be at the starting line on Sunday 26th April to complete this gruelling 26.2 mile marathon.
Chrons is a longterm chronic condition and as yet there is no cure for this debilitating condition.
I will be running under the auspices of the Gentlemen's Night Out charity to raise funds for both some very poorly children and for research into this
dreadful disease with Chron's & Colitis UK.

i have set up a Just Giving site - https://www.justgiving.com/davekaplanlondonmarathon2015 and any support you can give would be greatly appreciated - and I know messages of support on the day would spur me on to complete this challenge.
Many thanks for taking the time to read this message.
With thanks in anticipation and my kindest regards
