Our own "Marathon Man" - Alan Holt

Over the past 14 years, many of our business contacts will know that Alan Holt has been running marathons, half marathons and taken part in numerous other running events, often in aid of charities.

Alan has completed 11 London marathons, and on several occasions, many of you have been kind enough to support him in these ventures.

What you may not know, is that Alan was unable to finish the 2007 London Marathon due to his knees giving in.

Having never failed to finish in the past, he found this extremely disappointing and frustrating, and at that point resolved to complete at least one more London Marathon.

So, on April 26th this year and at 3 months shy of 70 years old, Alan will be running in what he says will be his last London marathon.

If you would like to support Alan by sponsoring him that would be great, however moral support would be equally welcome.

On this occasion he will be running to raise money for a very worthwhile charity Sense - National Deafblind and Rubella Association.

Intensive training early March 2009

To make sponsorship easy, we have set up a sponsorship page at the web site JustGiving.com

Very many thanks
