On April 15th, I shall be hauling my sorry frame around the 26.2 mile route of the Bungay marathon whilst raising money for The Christie, which helps more than 40,000 people with cancer each year. Your donation will fund research into new cancer treatments, as well as projects to support patients and their families.

I didn't have a picture of me running to post onto the site, so you'll have to make do with the closest thing I could find: the lovely Jedward doing the LA marathon. If only I knew where they got their outfits from... 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
