15th March February 2010: Training

Whooop! Me and Hels ran a size massive 18 miles on Sunday morning :D in 2hr 40mins thanks to Ali who guided us through the Toxteth outback. 1 month and nine days to go. Racing Numbers are confirmed Helens got 26390 and I'm 44773. So Hels the winner is the person who beats their running number by the most places right? Cheers for the support everyone.

Hello to everyone who has joined the facebook group and a special thanks to those who have donated so far :). Thanks for your support, I thought it would be nice, in return for this, to let people know how it's going. John managed a 20 mile run this week, a big acheivement this for ahead of the race. His appetite for pancakes on tuesday grew accordingly.
