On 25th May, Im going to be running Bupa London 10k in memory of a very special friend of mine, Mr Alex Lewis.
As many of you know, Alex was the most inspirational guy I will ever be lucky enough to meet. Sadly he was taken from us far to early due to Bone Cancer, a type of cancer which is particularly prominent in teenagers and hasn't seen a survival improvement in many years.
Any donation you could make would be hugely appreciated by the guys at BCRT, who will fund research projects aimed at helping to improve the survival rate of Bone Cancer, which affects mainly children and teenagers. As they receive no government funding, every little bit of money raised is really appreciated.
For anyone that hasn't been touched by Alex's incredible story of courage, love, and an insatiable appetite for life, please check out the link bellow:

Rather than just having a nice little 10k jog around london Ive decided to make this whole thing a lot less appealing and attempt to do it in a PB - sub 37 minutes 30 seconds...! This has resulted in me starting at the front with all the running club crew.
I think I may have made a small mistake.
But hey, Im going for it and any support you guys can offer in the form of donations to BCRT are greatly received.
In some small way lets hope these donations help in the fight against bone cancer.
