I’m proudly fundraising for Macmillan Cancer Care because they have already given me so much support in the form of medical information, counselling, media opportunities, a free will, and the chance to enjoy one last London Marathon.

I thought the media momentum might continue after my London Marathon triumph, but it completely disappeared.  I suppose that’s the nature of the news cycle - on to the next ‘inspirational’ s…
