I AM writing to ask your running readers who have already booked a place on the Bristol Half Marathon to run for Diabetes UK on Sunday, September 5.

If left untreated or not managed properly diabetes can lead to devastating complications such as heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, amputation and blindness.

Register at www.bristolhalfmarathon.com/bhmHome/. Please let us know if you have registered so that we can send you a running vest, sponsorship forms and a fundraising toolkit.

Email me at south.west@diabetes.org.uk or ring me on 01823 324 007.
