My story

As you may or may not know, I have taken the plunge and signed up for the Dublin marathon - as the saying goes, it's now or never! Now I have a month to go and the training is almost done and I think I am going to finish it in one piece...I hope. 26 miles is a long way after all and longer than I have ever (or probably ever will again) run.

While this is a personal challenge for me, I think is is only right that I try and do something for a good cause. The Simon Community do great work with people who have been less fortunate in life and I would be really grateful if you could donate something to mark my efforts.

Thanks a lot....I will update pictures of my glorious finish.
