- Why have you decided to run the London marathon in April?
Running the marathon is on my bucket list. I've come to an age where I wanted to do something worthwhile and set myself a challenge. I'm running the marathon to raise money for the charity Children with Cancer UK. My 19-year-old son is also running with me, but in aid of the charity Sense.
- How much training have you had to do?
I train three times a week and recently ran in the Colchester half-marathon. I hope to raise £1,500 for the charity. So far I have £1,000 in donations.
