The Cutty Sark, located in Greenwich, is an impressive piece of Merchant and Royal Naval history. It is a permanent memorial to the Merchant Navy and the 44,000 sailors who lost their lives in both world wars.

Given the age of the ship it is in constant need of care. I am running the Vitality Big Half to raise money for the ship; to ensure that this piece of British history is not lost to the ravages of time.

Now, I'm no athlete, and haven't run a lengthy distance in...decades. So running just over 21km will be an interesting challenge. Please donate!

* If you donate £30 or more I'll illustrate a comic book/cartoon character for you!
