Well after 12 weeks of intense training clocking up 582 miles in total on Sunday 22nd May I succesfully completed The Edinburgh Marathon in 3 hours 45 minutes and 52 seconds! An enjoyable achievement despite the joys of the good old Scottish weather from sunny spells to strong head winds and torrential showers! I crossed the finish line with pride spurred on by fabulous support on the day and over the weeks including some great fund raising, thanks to all who have donated and of course it's not too late to donate.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could help me hit the £1000 target how good would that be ? For further information on my chosen charity Children North East please feel free to visit their website.
