Yes I know 10K is no marathon but for anyone who knows me let's be honest I don't like exercise. My face goes a worrying shade of raspberry and I sweat so much I look like I've just run through a car wash! Having said that while I will happly make a mountain out of any mole hill you care to show me, I'm running for someone who ran their own race fighting cancer with more dignity and grace than I could ever muster. Joanna McArthur was my best mates wife and my very good friend.

St Christopher's Hospice gave Joanna fantastic care and support thoughout her journey and I'm very proud to be raising money for them in Jo's memory. So if you want to help a woefully unfit ginger man raise some money for a great cause then please make a donation.
