I am running the London Marathon on April 13th to raise the profile and funds for the Long Shields project. The project's central aim is to mitigate the conflict between man and lion that has contributed to the decline in lions in Africa. Donate today and help save Africa's Pride.

Its almost time to go!

Well its almost time to start my journey to London for the big day so this will be one of the last posts until you hopefully see one with my finisher's photo attached. Donations are coming in swiftly now and I wanted to extend my deepest gratitude to those of you that are supporting us. Remember to email me the details of your donations so I can claim them from the Oxford account and so I can thank you personally. If I have not thanked you then I haven't seen your email.

Me running my usual route near Hwange safari lodge
Shupi: The latest news on shupi is that he is about 80km NW of where we were chasing him with vuvuzelas. He is about to re-enter a protected area near Hwange's sinamatella camp so that is a real score if he stays there and out of trouble.

If you are a spectator at the marathon on the 13th April, look out for a man in a leopardskin loincloth, wearing a red shirt with the Long Shield logo on the front. The back of the shirt reads "Roar your support for Africa's lions" so please shout your lungs out as I run past!

Other than that I thank you for your following my training and I wish you a future full of "tawny cats"
