I am going back home to Yorkshire to take part (and hopefully complete) my first Marathon to raise money for the Jane Tomlinson Appeal. 

Jane was a close family friend and inspiring lady. Despite being given just six months to live, over the next seven years, as she defied her diagnosis, Jane went on to achieve what many people might struggle to in a lifetime - surmounting increasingly difficult challenges, capturing the attention of people across the world, and raising over £1.85m for charity.

The charity, which aims to improve the lives of people living with cancer is one close to my heart; I fully appreciate any donations to support the cause!
