It’s come round way too quickly but next weekend on 7th of April is the Brighton Marathon (where all the London rejects were sent and some lunatics like me even signed up!!). I’m fundraising for 3 great charities chosen by myself and my two running buddies, Ally and Em, who sadly can no longer take part but will be there to shout at me and tell me to run faster. If you can spare some of your hard earned cash we’d be so grateful for every penny.

Whilst only one charity can be nominated for a Just Giving page, any offline donations and our own contributions will be split equally between MacMillan and Kidney Research. We’ve chosen AMEND as the headliner as this charity is largely unheard of but they do great work to support those with rare endocrine disorders and associated tumours.

Various injuries have prevented me from completing the full training schedule so I will have to dig really deep to do this - I hope you can too. Wish me luck, I am really going to need it!
