Ken, 44, will be running the <strong>Virgin</strong> <strong>London</strong> <strong>Marathon</strong> for the<br />
charity Heart Research UK. He decided on this charity after his<br />
friend developed a heart condition and has ongoing treatment<br />
ever since. After seeing his friend's condition it bought home<br />
how important heart research is in finding cures for conditions<br />
like his friends', so Ken decided to run the <strong>London</strong> <strong>Marathon</strong> to<br />
raise money for the pioneering research in to heart disease. He<br />
hopes to raise £5,000.<br />
