Hi everybody. This is a request for anyone who feels up to it to get moving and enter the London 10k in July.

I took part last year and raised over £700 for CLLSA. That's in my 68th year and the 18th year since CLL diagnosis.

This year I hope to do it again - but only finish treatment for a secondary cancer on 5th June - but here is hoping.

Anyone want to join me ?? For details and an entry form please contact derek.mcglashan@cllsuport.org.uk

We have 18 places half of which are now gone - so if you are joining me - be quick. Bonus for entering is you get a super CLLSA T shirt. You don't have to run it, I jogger'walked last year but walking was far more than jogging.'

Take care hope to see some of you at Cambridge or in Glasgow later this year.

Willie

Hi Willie,

I would love to do it but unfortunately I now have sciatica preventing me from training. I have completed the Great South Run (10 miles) 6 times (the last 2 times for Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research) until 2012 when the sciatica struck. I Iived in London until 2010 and but for the CLL would still be there.

I hope you get some takers.

Hi Willie

I too would love to do this. I did the Manchester 10K yesterday for Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research ( great day but picking the hottest day of the year was not helpful).

I am not sure yet however if I can make that date. If I can I will be back in touch.

What's the exact date and where does it start from.

Unfortunately it may be a while before I know if I can make this but I will come back should it be possible in case there is still a place available.
