Story

I made it.....Yippee!!!!!

I managed to complete the 10K race in 62 minutes (exact time via chips will be issued to us later by BUPA)...not so bad considering I started training 4 weeks ago but always the competitor it would have been great to have got under 60 minutes!

It was a crazy start given there were record numbers of people running and I have to say the last 2km were a killer!!!  If you look closely enough at the photo above I'm seriously suffering!!!  Still, nothing that a glass of champagne and a pizza couldn't cure!!!!

I wanted to say a big thankyou to everyone who supported me with their donations.  I hope I can still persuade a few people to donate.
