News: Angela Barnes To Do Charity Sit Up Marathon

Comedian Angela Barnes is setting out to do 3000 sit ups during March to raise money for the Royal Marsden Hospital. 

The Brighton-based comedian has decided to do this to support the hospital because it has been looking after her friend and fellow stand-up Phil Jerrod, who has been undergoing cancer treatment. 

Barnes says: "The Royal Marsden are brilliant, and I'd love it if you could support them. 

Now, I really hate sit-ups, I mean, look at me, of course I do. So what better way to grow to love them than by trying to do 3000 of them in a month? THREE THOUSAND I mean that's about 100 a day. Oh what have I done...?

My fella has agreed (a bit too eagerly if you ask me) to be my counter to make sure I don't cheat, and I'll post some vids and reports of my progress

I'm hoping by the end of it to have a set of abs to rival Joel Dommett, but much more important than that, I want to raise a load of money for the awesome Royal Marsden Cancer Charity. They are obviously close to my heart and they do incredible things."

Angela Barnes is hoping to raise £2000 and you can donate here.
