    London Marathon 2nd attempt

    Well I guess it's time I started to try and relieve some of you of your hard earned cash.
    At the grand old age of 63 I will be attempting to run my first ever Marathon.
    I did originally enter the 2024 London Marathon but due to my ever enlarging Prostate had to defer it last year to 2025, (hopefully on the back of my original thread a few of you have had and will continue to have regular check-ups).
    But to the present I will be running to raise money for Freddie's Future and the Bone Cancer Trust charity.
    Below is a link to my Just Giving Page, any support will be gratefully received

    In between training runs, I hope to meet up with as many of you as possible in 2025

    BR
    Dave

    Dave. Well done for entering.
    I think you should run the marathon in SEC/Martini T shirt and shorts.
    On second thoughts, maybe long trousers and not shorts. Keep your legs covered.

    Thanks for the generous donations, I'll keep you updated on training and fundraising progress.

    Alas I won't be sporting Martini colours as I'll be in the official Bone Cancer Trust attire, besides I don't think I could pull off the outfit above

    If anyone else wishes to donate please use the link below to take you to my just giving page:

    All the best Dave
