On October 5, I am running the St. George Marathon down a mountain in Utah (solo, not with Paula Radcliffe, sadly) in support of the St. George's Society of New York.

The St. George's Society is a charity that means a lot to me, as many of you know, particularly their work supporting families living with paediatric cancer and people of British and Commonwealth descent who have fallen on hard times. I've seen up close the tremendous impact their work has on the people they help, and cannot recommend highly enough the siphoning of your hard-earned dollars into their good-doing hands. You can read more about their programs here.

I also couldn't resist the opportunity to do St. George for St. George's.
