My name is Matthew Plummer, an electrician in a previous life, now a mature student reading Forensic Computing at Staffordshire University.

In 1996 I was badly injured in an accident, with a head injury & crushed pelvis I was not expected to be able to walk again unaided.

During my rehabilitation I decided I wanted to run the London Marathon in millennium year, This goal helped my recovery and by 1999 I was in training. In 2000, I ran for the Winged Fellowship Trust raising £5000 +

The running bug had truly got me and I ran in other races Manchester 2001, London 2002, New York 2002 and London again 2003.

In 2003 my good leg had enough, breaking in 4 places during a run, I spent 8 months with my leg in a frame missing the 2004 Marathon. It was another 4 months before I could start training again, and I am being allowed to run this years marathon with a plate in my leg.

Training is going well, but must admit this could be my last full distance London Marathon. I consider myself lucky my injuries in 96' meant I had to rebuild my life from scratch learn how to walk talk communicate all over again at 22 years old. A VERY BIG Thank you to Everybody who has assisted me in my long recovery, family & friends, Mr CH Wynn-Jones Consultant, All at North Staffs Hospital, All at East Cheshire NHS Trust (broken leg), All members of Congleton Harriers running club who have helped me physically to get where I am today.
