jordanKatie Price and Peter Andre have said they’re both determined to complete the London Marathon next month to raise money for charity.

The couple are hoping to raise £250,000 for NSPCC and Vision, a charity which helps blind, visual impaired and dyslexic children, inspired by their partially sighted son Harvey.

Katie, aka glamour model Jordan, explained: “On the day I’ll probably be running with a photo of Harvey on my vest, which will provide a constant source of motivation.

“When I first started training I couldn’t even run 200 metres, and Pete couldn’t manage more than a mile. It was pretty daunting.

“But now we’re both up to 13 miles and recently completed our first half marathon.

“I’m giving everything to this and have been training nearly every day - I can’t even drink any more because it effects my training so much. I’ve become so boring since starting all of this - we both have! I’m a total lightweight now!”

Pete added that he’s a lightweight too now - literally: “I’ve lost over a stone and a half in weight since I started training. We’re both still eating absolute c**p though so we’re seeing a specialist nutritionist who’s taking our body fat percentages and giving us an eating plan.”

The couple moved to Los Angeles with their children at the start of the year, for Pete to work on his new album and for Harvey to receive more specialist health care and education - but Pete explained it’s also helped their training: “Running along the beach and seeing dolphins diving in and out of the waves is also a bit different to wrapping up in sub-zero conditions and running against the wind along Brighton Pier!”
