All my life, I only ever ran in an emergency... Now I'll be running a half-marathon on 22nd May, raising money for the Samaritans.

Every six seconds, somebody contacts the Samaritans for help.

Looking back on a year of isolation and uncertainty, please consider donating whatever you can afford to help them continue to be there for people suffering from anxiety, loneliness and depression.

The Wimbledon Half-Marathon has been postponed. Now I'll be running my own route with friend and colleague Alex Williams (who's training for an unbelievable 100km race this September)... 

Starting at Hyde Park Corner, down to Kensington Palace, back past Lancaster Gate to Marble Arch, another lap of the Park (this time along the Serpentine), then onto Buckingham Palace, up the Mall to Trafalgar Square, down Whitehall, past the Houses of Parliament, back along the river to Chelsea Bridge, then around Battersea Park a couple of times to round off 13.1 miles.

Let me know if you fancy coming to cheer us on, or would just like to join for a picnic afterwards in Battersea Park :)
