I'm a lockdown cliche.  Started running 'cos the Gyms were closed, and well, it's got out of hand. Like most of my obsessions...

I'm running just over 26 miles in the land of Oasis and Vimto to raise money for The Christie.  This amazing place is run by a bunch of superheros that put others before themselves as a matter of routine.  And in the Covid-19 Pandemic that has gone to horrific levels.  

On a more personal note, my Dad has cancer.  The tough old f*cker has been batting it off for almost 20 years.  But he's not done that without an army of people behind him from the Christie. Without them, we would have lost him a long time ago. So I want to give something back, as small as this is.  

Please help me help them in anyway you can. However small.  I am very aware this is a terrible time to ask for money.  So do not worry if you are not able.  But if you can, know that you'll be supporting the incredible people doing incredible things on a daily basis.
