You don’t need me to tell you that getting a cancer diagnosis is shit.

But being treated for cancer can also be shit.

Macmillan Cancer Support makes life for cancer sufferers less shit.

Isn’t that something we can all get behind?

Despite an almost complete lack of natural ability, I will soon be running a half marathon for Macmillan Cancer Support. I'd be hugely grateful if you could sponsor me.

My fundraising target is a frankly ambitious £2000, but with your help I think we might make it. To raise £2000 would be fantastic: to smash that target would obviously be much better, so please give what you can.

My race is at 9 a.m. on Sunday 24 September in Ealing. If you're conscious, please come to cheer me on - or simply send good vibes from a convenient location.

And make sure you watch my training montage video – definitely worth another few quid. bit.ly/runCKrun.

Everything you give will go towards helping people living with cancer.

Thanks for your support. I promise to make it worth your while!
