<p>Between 18th September and the end of October I shall be running three and a half marathons in support of Acorns Children's Hospice. Acorns is a wonderful charity that provides care and support for children with life threatening conditions. Just as importantly, Acorns also help families cope with the emotional and practical difficulties that arise from having to support a child with a life threatening or life limiting condition.</p> <p><a title="Team Acorns" href="http://www.justgiving.com/Team-Acorns">Team Acorns</a> are running in the Great North Run in support of friend and clubmate <a title="Geordie Nick" href="http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/9238487.By_George__he_s_run_it/">George</a> who was helped and supported by Acorns when he lost his granddaughter Emily in 2006.</p> <p>Thank you for your support.</p> <p>Sun 18th Sep:<em> Great North Run</em></p> <p>Sun 2nd Oct: <em>Loch Ness Marathon</em></p> <p>Sun 9th Oct: <em>Liverpool Marathon</em></p> <p>Sun 30th Oct: <em>Newcastle Town Moor Marathon</em></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
