I'm 50 on 3rd May so I thought I'd celebrate by attempting my first marathon. Blood Cancer kindly gave me a charity place, so that I could run in memory of my lovely dad (which I think I can manage now without crying the entire way round).

Ideally, my training would have involved less limping, but we're here now, so if you donate, I'll try and get round in 4 and a half hours, but I'm not promising anything except that I'll do my best for you (and my dad).
