London Marathon 2008

Runners from Harrow and Brent are already gearing up for this year's Flora London Marathon.

The Harrow Observer wants you to tell us about your marathon plans, let us know if you have a fundraising website and which charity you're running for.

Ralph Scully, 24, is currently in training for the 26 mile race, which weaves through central London on April 26.

He said: "I' ve thought about it for a very long time and believe that a better way of achieving a personal goal would be to run for a charity of my choice.

"I have chosen the Multiple Sclerosis Resource Centre (MSRC) a proactive and innovative charity, passionately committed to supporting anyone affected by Multiple Sclerosis through access to unbiased information and advice."

Mr Scully is attempting to raise £1,500, and you can sponsor him by visiting http://www.justgiving.com/ralphscully .
