Hello, this year I was lucky enough to get a ballot place for the London Marathon so I am not under pressure to raise any particular amount, however as Tenovus my sponsors in 2006 and 2007 were so good to me I am raising money for them.
I am going to run the Paris Marathon on 11th April 2010 (time was 3:38.42) and the London Marathon on 25th April 2010 (time was 3:41:47) which is the third time in three years. Even if you aren't interested, hopefully the EmilyBeast was worth looking at (a Somali is a Long-Haired Abyssinian to answer the most frequently asked question I've had)
I ran the 2009 Paris Marathon in 3:42.19, fairly mediocre if I say so myself.
I ran the 2009 London Marathon in 3:44.15, keeping the mediocrity consistent.
One thing I get a bit embarrassed about is that what I do isn't really that impressive but people mistakenly believe that I think it is, in the South Wales running club community and beyond I have met so many totally unassuming people who have done and still do phenomenal feats of speed and endurance that I couldn't even do for a mile. The other thing I feel strongly about is that the "headline events" aren't where real running takes place, its the journey to get to the start line relatively uninjured that counts.
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
