My story

 
Well I can now say that I've succefully completed my first marathon! It was a great  atmosphere with supportive crowds, steel bands, bag pipes and vicars throwing holy water (I must have looked like I needed saving!).

Sun beaming down, the shower spray tents along the course were much welcomed! The last few miles were a bit of a struggle but the spectators, friends and family kept me on my toes.  Official finishing time 4h 53.14. 

Just now enjoying a little rest before I think of the next challenge!

A massive THANK YOU to everyone who's supported me and made a donation towards my running charity of choice, Deafness Research UK. 

(If you haven't donated, it's still not too late!)  

:  )

Many thanks again!
