PIC SHOWS JEFFREY AND MARY ARCHER DURING THE CHARIOTS OF FIRE RACE IN CAMBRIDGE ON SUNDAY MORNING 18 SEPT... Novelist Jeffrey Archer ran by courageous wife Mary's side at a charity race today (Sun) as she made her first public appearance since overcoming a potentially fatal form of bladder cancer...The former politician was NOT registered in the race but wanted to be by his wife's side as she bravely ran 1.7 miles just FIVE MONTHS after undergoing major surgery to have the diseased organ removed...Out of sight of the judges, Lord Archer sneakily joined the race 200 metres after the start and pulled out 100 metres before the finish so he could support Dr Archer in the famous Chariots of Fire relay race...Dr Archer, 66, who only discovered she had an aggressive form of cancer last November, looked delighted as her husband jogged along with her through the scenic streets and colleges of Cambridge...Before the race she said he had been a huge support throughout her battle with cancer and had helped her prepare for the race...SEE COPY CATCHLINE Jeffrey Archer runs with post cancer Mary
