Bless me people for I have sinned - it's been over 3 months since my last post! I thought I'd better start updating this thing now that I have started raising money.
I let people know about the Virgin Giving site and my entering the marathon only 2 days ago and already have raised £376.00 for BHF. Thanks to all you generous people! I've emailed friends, family, work contacts and put the link on Facebook so it's obviously doing some good. I have lots more promises of sponsorship so I am confident that I will reach (or hopefully exceed) my target of £2000.00.
Training has been progressing well. I have had a bit of a hamstring injury which has been plaguing me for the past few months when running. Not the ideal situation for someone running the marathon, but Commando Rob has been doing some remedial work with me and it is getting a lot better. I am doing my 6.00am sessions on Blackheath and putting in a few hours a week at the gym so it's all going well. I should hopefully only need one more remedial treatment and then I will be up and running in earnest. I'm looking forward to putting on some tunes and getting out there pounding the streets. It might help with a bit of weightloss too!
I will try to keep this updated with any highs and lows and thank you's as I go on my quest.
Wish me luck!!
