Yes we maybe crazy but my cousin Laura and I are running the London Marathon this year. We are by no means experienced runners but we have always wanted to do it! We actually got in the ballot last year but chickened out and as you can only defer your entry once, we have to run it this year...there is no backing out now!

We will be running in memory of our Grandad who sadly died of Mesothelioma cancer in 2005 at the young age of 64. He was an amazing person who we all miss greatly. He completed the London marathon several years ago and we know he will be proud of us for doing the same.

We will be raising money for St Kentigern's Hospice in North Wales, they provide care and support for patients with a life limiting illnesses. They looked after our Grandad and many other close friends and family members at the end of their illnesses, they are an amazing charity and one that is very close to our hearts.
