Over the last few months you may have seen a combination of us walking around the wood and surrounding areas.

It started with three of us having a walk for exercise, and there are now 6 of us who in under 3 weeks will be walking the marathon distance around London

To put the distance into perspective, next time you drive the length of Theobald street, we would need to walk that 10 times!!

Cancer is horrible, and needs to be stopped. It has made too many people fight for their health, and unfortunately has taken too many people too early, so the least the six of us can do is help raise some money towards this cause.

We all know how often people are asked to donate to good casues, but please help us.

We only have three more weeks to pester you and for this we do not apologise

For me (Marcus) having had dinner recently with somebody who is currently in their battle, and seeing how they are not even allowed to touch the medication they are taking (they have to use a glove to protect their skin) was the defining moment to signing up, and for each of us in turn it is important that we do this.

Sponsor us early and then you can ignore the nagging that you will see on Facebook.

We would in advance like to thank all who have donated so far, and all who read the above and are encouraged to donate, and also our families who have lost us for a few hours each sunday morning whilst we have trained.
