This will be my 2nd (and last !) marathon after completing the Edinburgh marathon in 2014. That was ok but the majority of the route was one road out and back with no bystanders. I decided I really needed to complete the London marathon after years of seeing it so well supported. I will be 50 in April and that seems a nice round age to do it at.

Leonard Cheshire have been magnificent in giving me the opportunity and support needed so I intend to raise as much as I can between now and April so they can carry on their much needed work.
