My story
Thanks for visiting our page.
We have chosen to run the London Marathon for charity. Tim is preparing for Ironman Switzerland in July 2012 and Sue fancies the challenge, she only started running in 2010 and has only ever ran 8 miles!
Please support us by donating to Friends of The Beacon
Our chosen charity supports local people by providing specialist care for those with cancer or chronic progressive illness. The team can help:
* following diagnosis
* during and after treatment
* at a time of relapse or recurrence
* in later stage illness
* with care and support in the last weeks of life
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate -we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate now.
********************
13 weeks to go and we are both now running 4 times a week. Doesn't sound too bad but we both take part in Triathlons so it's tough fitting in time to swim and ride as well...please sponsor us
********************
It's cold out but we are still training hard. Sue ran 21 miles last week, the longest run being 10 miles.

Thanks for all of your donation so far - it's amazing that we have already reached our target....let's see how much we can raise!!
Sue ran 37 miles last week and is still really enjoying training, the weather is getting warmer and the evenings lighter. Next week she is off on a meditation week away....the trainers will be going with her!
Tim has started to up the bike miles (ready for IM Switzerland) which is making the running even harder. Fleet half marathon is in 12 days time.
*****************
Well we both had an amazing day. Tim ran in 4:18 mins and Sue in 4:40
There were nine of us in the team for Friends of Beacon and we have raised over £10,000 which is just amazing. They are really pleased so that's for your support, without you we would not have reached this end goal.
