<p>Hi all!</p> <p>After 5 years of trying, I have finally got a place for this years London Marathon.<br />Unfortunately, I have been troubled with injury throughout my training, and have only just decided that I am fit enough to enter the race. As you can imagine, I'm not looking for a super fast time, but to use the event as the start of my endurance run training for this years UK Ironman in July.<br />Running for Gyllyngvase Surf Life Saving Club, I am raising funds for ShelterBox. A fabulous local chairty with international reach that delivers emergency shelter, warmth and dignity to people affected by disaster worldwide.<br />So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
