Liz McColgan - Team Patron, Running Events.
"I’m supporting the efforts of the TVTimes sponsored Banana Army – made up of some 75 stars from your favourite TV programmes, plus literally thousands of fundraising runners!
My husband Peter lost his brother Martin to leukaemia. Martin was only 5 when he died so I know first hand how blood cancer affects families.
So if you haven’t joined up already, this is your chance to help fund life-saving research into leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma."

Dreamz 4 U is a charity that was set up on the 18th April 2007 to help young people across the UK.
We make the dreams come true for children with a various array of illnesses ranging from cystic fibrosis to down syndrome and brain tumors.
We have been making the kids dreams come true at an average of 10 a month, until now when the dreams are now coming in thick and fast.
Jimmy says: "It is a fantastic feeling when you see a sick child receiving their dream. As the Chief Executive I get to see more than most and the feeling is the most amazing. I wish that everyone who helps make that dream happen can see the total excitement and joy on these children’s faces.
We would like to welcome you to this website and hope you see the total joy that your money and support brings to these children and again I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Jim Michie
Chief Executive, Dreamz4u.
