<p>After 5 years and 6 attempts I finally bagged a place at The London Marathon!!! 2012 The Olympic Year..........this must be some kind of omen!&nbsp;</p> <p>After Triathlon, Ironman and an attempt to swim the English Channel (to be revisited!!) I have arrived back at plain old simple running! &nbsp;</p> <p>The Plan.............to run under 3.15hours so next year I am garunteed a Good For Age place (now I'm over 40!), this means I've gotta shave almost 4 minutes of my PB which I did in Dublin nearly 4 years ago!!!</p> <p>It wont be easy but I gunna try!!!!!</p> <p>Please sponsor me in my challenge...................raising funds for the Dinnington Resource Centre is something I have done for 8 years now and with a bit of luck something I shall be doing for some years to come, its a superb Communtiy Centre, even if I do say so myself, so please don't be shy, splash the cash and help me hit my targets!!!</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
